Girl Shows Concern

SHE writes,

“My father drinks

a lot.

My mother has done everything she can. I would like to kmow what else she can do.” Then, on the notepaper bordered with

gay pictures of adds, “If people knew that my would it make any difference in them toward me?” Since the letter ends with the word’ love, I assume that my correspondent is a girl child. I judge her to be around 12 or 13 years old. I am going to try to answer her for two reasons: First, because I think she isa loving, brave child to put concern for her mother before concern for herself and tp able to formulate her own fear, in such concise, objective terms. Second. because I believe she

PSYCHIATRISTS have Jong known that they can do very little to improve patients who do not wish to work at improving themselves. They regard well-meaning attempts to” reshape people who do not want to be reshaped as a waste of precious time that belongs to those who can use it to better advantage. Like the father of the prodigal son in the Bible story, 'who refrained from all pleading with his child to reject his life among the swine, our modern experts: know that to give strength, the heart and the mind must be opened to receive it. If the mother of my correspondent can control her false sense of responsibility for the husband she loves, she and his ¢hild may well work out their problem in a way that will command. not the pity or curiosity of their neighbors, but their respect and admiration.

WHEN WE TRY to force a change of conduct on someone else, we are less likely to change it than to excite our own sense of outrdge and frustration. This ‘mother is far more likely to help her husband to discover his own desire for help if she strives to work out her own peace than she is by threatening or pleading with him. If she has done all that she can to help him, she has won her right to develop the serenity” she owes his child. Unless she sees this, she, like her husband, can become $0 preoccupied with discouragement and despair that there is no time or strength to reassure her daughter. The wives and husbands of alcoholics are apt to forget what their constant talk of “disgrace” can do to the children who 80 much need realistic, loving help in working out their thoughts about
