13-Year-Old Claims Love For Boy in Her Class but Father Forbids Friends

Parents Who Understand Normal Progression of Children’s Emotions Do Not Attempt to Keep Youths and Girls Apart, Jane Says.

Put your problems in a letter to Jane Jordan, who will help you solve them by her answers in this column.

” » ” ¢ ; DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a girl 13 years old, in the 8A at school. 1 am very much in love with a boy In mv room. We have liked each other since October. My dad found out that 1 was going with this boy and forbade me to see him any more. He will not let me go to the store because he thinks I will meet my boy friend, and he gives me just five minutes to get home from school. My boy friend came over at night, but 1 couldn't go out with him or let ‘him in the house, so I raised the window and talked to him. My 11-vear-old sister told my father and he nailed the window shut. It isn't that my dad doesn’t like this boy: he won't even let me play with my cousins. He won't let my big sister, who is 16, have a boy friend, nor will he let me bring a girl friend home to play with. My dad treated my big sister terribly and so she asked me and my boy friend to run away. We played hooky and got caught. After this my dad said I could go with a boy if he liked him, but I told him 1 didn’t want any other boy but this one. Don’t say I am too young or that it is just puppy love. I love this poy and he loves me very much. Ww. P, Answer—Why be ashamed of puppy love? It has its place in lite and is laughed at only by those who are envious. Most of us believe that people do not fall in love until they reach puberty, but this is not true. The love life of each individual begins with the day of birth and continues until death. ; The normal person falls in love often during childhood, sometimes lightly, sometimes intensely. The mother is the first love choice of the child, then other members of the family. Love is quite independent of sex up until the time of puberty, when boys attach themselves to girls and girls take not ice of boys. : Parents who understand the normal and natural progression of the emotions do not try to prevent it by hiding boys and girls from each other. Indeed, they recognize that one of the major adjustments of life is to learn how to get along with the opposite sex. The sooner boys and girls get acquainted the better. It is not reasonable to suppose that » girl who has never associated with boys can be thrown suddenly into their society at 18 or 20 and know how to behave. Ignorance is not a safeguard, but a hazard. It is strange that some parents are so bent on preventing an adjustment which is so necessary to successful living. 1 do not mean that a 13-vear-old girl should have unlimited freedom to come and go with boys as she chooses, but only that her friends of hoth sexes should be welcome at her home. A home with the door closed and the window nailed shut against outsiders is not a good educational institution for children, 1 do not know what vou can do with your father, but cajole him into letting you have friends your own age. Few fathers are immune from the flattery of their daughters who, if they are smart, can wind fathers around their little fingers. If I were vou, I should not let my 16-year-old sister incite me to do things which she hasn't the nerve to do. Let her fight her own battles and you fight yours. JANE JORDAN.

When South saw the dummy, he realized that the problem was not so easy. East probably was void of clubs, too. So, to prevent an overruff, South trumped the opening lead of the king of clubs with the queen of hearts. East discarded a small spade. The four of hearts was led from dummy and won with the ace. West's discard placed four hearts in the East hand. South cashed the ace of diamonds and led the jack of spades.
