Problems
DEAR MRS. MANNERS:
to you. Maybe our problems are We don’t want anyone to feel
some things I'm ashamed fo tell them. You see, my parents think I'm a little wild, but they do trust me and that's what makes this so hard. ¥or a few months I've gone with a sweet but crazy fellow. He's 10 and I'm just 18. We were planning on being married, certain that we were in love. Then he asked me for privileges. Of course I refused and explained 1 felt we couldn't base love on
we love_each other and it should . make ug | both happy. When I still
refused “he paid 1 couldn't love him very much, So I gave in, as many girls do. who are in love. But instead of being happy we were both very unhappy and ashamed. He's so ny disguested with himself for making me unhappy. He insists he's no good and that I should forget Him. But he’s really very sweet, and wonderful. It's just that he didn’t know how to express his Jove for me. So I told him, if he wanted, we wouldn't see each other until be got over his feeling of guilt and self-conviction. I tried to tell him he was wrong but it's over now and he still can’t face me. Now I believe I may be pregnant, though I'm not sure. Maybe
loneliness for him. But if I am what shall I do? I don't want him back because he feels guilty or feels sorry for me. I do believe
aol things. We rdsbated v-Ahe,S : subject, His reasoning was that ©
—" 4t's merely a gullty conscience and!
LIKE EVERY other confused teen-ager in town, I am writing
simple and our troubles silly but
to us crazy kids who get in the messes they're very important.
sorry for us, We only want some- |
one who will try to understand and help. I have a very sweet, intelligent and understanding family. But
Like a Mouse I DON'T BELIEVE a man knows how a woman feels when she learns she can push him around, else he wouldn't let her. I also doubt if the woman knows

mouse. Every time she criticizes him she helps convert him into that mouse type she hopes ae isn’t. She may tart with litt'e things {like telling him he uses his fork [wrong that i he isn't good around
and more prosperous than her husband. Maybe he comes home, beaten) down in business. He has to be| a pretty strong man not to let| the rest of the wind go out of his sails when his wife adds to his discouragement. He thinks he's a fallure. Bhe's afraid he is. When she shows that fear. she convinces him. 80 he—and’ their] marirage—fail. EAST SIDER. I rather doubt if a woman can boss or “mother” a real man. A man, with all the traits expected of him, doesn’t | want to be thought a “little | boy” except in the sense of being ever “youthful, gay and | charming, He doesn’t want to be considered helpless, except when he wants painful chores done for him. That bit of male childishness he probably excuses as a detail coming undar the heading of “woman's work.” (Lot to this woman's work department, isn't there?) When we step in and make a
he loves me. I know my family would be sweet and understanding—they're that kind. But 1 don’t want to “hurt them, hurt him, Please help me. I know I've done wrong once and whatever 1 do I want to be right this
time. ANOTHER WRONG TEEN-AGER.

ficulty. 1 hope she visits the doctor, hears good news but remembers f Er
