LOUISA’S 1 LETTER

Dear Louisa, 1 haven’t any problem that worries me particularly but I would like to pass along something that 1 do that might help other young couples. 1 am a man who has been married five years and we have a little son almost three. When I was a child, when bedtime came my mother bathed us at bedtime and got us to bed as quickly as possible so that she could see about dinner for father. Everything was done in such a hurry that we never got to talk about our little problems or worries and as father did not come home to lunch none of us knew him very well except as a judge to punish us if we had done something bad during the day. 1 decided when my son was born to have a better relationship with him than my father had with me so as soon as he was old enough I accepted it as my privilege to take over the bedtime hour. This is the way we work it out. My wife has him bathed when 1 come in at night. We eat our meal with him in his pajamas

and sitting in a high chair between us. After the meal, while my wife does the dishes my son and I sit in as easy chair and we talk about things that interest him or I read him a story. Then he goes to the bathroom, he says his prayers, and I tuck him in bed. He looks forward to being with daddy every night and I have also felt disappointed if anything happens to make me miss this opportunity. 1 think fathers miss a great deal when they leave the complete care of the children to the mother. This also makes the mother much happier and we are both in a better frame of mind whether we are staying home or leaving a baby sitter in charge. Dad-Mo. Answer: 1 think this letter speaks for itself and I am sure that you and your son will be very close to each other as the years pass. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa, Box 532.Orangeburg, S.C. 29115
