Jordan's ggestions on Married Man

irl in "Teens Confesses Her Relationship Is “Bad Business.”

What's back of your behavior? Put

He has never gotten along with his wife. He wants. me to go steady, but I don’t see how I can. I refuse to see him, give him a cold 5 shoulder, but still _he comes. I think very much of him and would like to go with him . if he were single. My folks refuse when I ask to go with some one. They never like any one I want to ‘go with; so I go anyway. They do not know this man is married. He _does not live very far from our home, but they only have heard me call ‘him by his nickname. I run around with his sister and she is a good kid. He lives in the same house with her and when I call on her I see him. Then sometimes he follows us to make a date with me. * Should I quit running around with “him or not? Answer soon; as I am - anxious to know what you think, UNDECIDED. * Answer—I do not wish to tell you ‘whether you should go with this young married man or not. I would “rather have you decide for yourself , after we inquire into the “reasons which make you willing to engage in what you call “bad business.” I begin to see why a good girl likes “bad business” when you say, “My folks refuse when I ask to go with some one. They never like any one I want to go with; so I go anyway.” ‘." This is the remark of a discouraged girl. Failing to meet with sympathy from your family in your endeavor to make friends . with the other sex in a socially + acceptable manner, you conclude ” that it doesn’t make any differ- ! ence whether you conform te the . rules of society or not, since you will meet with condemnation in any case. : . But this isn't good reasoning, is it? Your parents aren’t the only people in the world. Besides the real reward for shaping your life according to social requirements lies in the fact that it is the only pos- _ sible method of growing up into a useful and satisfied woman. Of course your parents’ insympathetic attitude doesn’t wholly explain why you tolerate this young (married man. ' You say he has “never gotten along with his wife. I just wonder if your father has never gotten along with your mother and ‘if you find ’yoursélf siting’ with him in their difficulties. If this is true {it would tend to make you side with ‘ other men who have difficulty with ‘their wives. I am only guessing, tfor I do not know you. What I do ‘know is that no girl makes her _, first misstep without having a back- . ground for it somewhere in -the experience of her childhood.

Many parents do let children help with the work, which is excellent training, and right; but this concerns another principle . in When a girl helps her mother to make beds or wash dishes, it is her smother’s interest she is working for, not her own. When the boy washes the car or weeds the yard, it is his parents’ interests he is engaged in. - Let ‘me not discount this: It is something I recommend heartily. But “each child should also have something of his -own to- dig his teeth into; something that takes thinking, work, manipulation and construction. . Trust these children.

They will make mistakes, but so would you if you were learning to sail a catboat or make sauce Marguery for the first time. You can learn both. And so can the children learn to do hundreds of things you think they can’t. Watch small tendencies, to discover just what “interest” might bear the quickest fruit. Sally may want to cook. Let her.
