EAR JANE JORDAN—I ~ ‘have had a great deal of - trouble with my son. He always has despised obedience, been self-willed and would not finish school. He always claimed he knew more than the teachers, and when he works he knows so much more than the management that he finally eases himself out. He finally left home when he was informed that he would be without a home if he didn’t get a job.

. ANSWER—I don’t think it is a question of whether you're justified in disinheriting your son or. not. It is too difficult to, detepmine what a parent owes a child for vice versa) after the child is of age, What is done after the child is no longer . dependent is largely determined by the affection which each has for the ‘other. The problem narrows down to how much persondl satisfaction it would give you to leave what you have to charity instead of your son. There seems to be a large element of revenge in your plan. You want to strike and strike hard with . a weapon which will hurt. You'd rather not believe this and that is why you want to feel justified in your act.
