It seems like it should be a simple matter of picking Up so many pairs of socks, shirts, pants, etc. but not sol Ever since fad and fashion reared their ugly heads it bas become a mother's nightmnare. No mat- ter how "with it" she tbinks she is, whatever she picks out is likely to be considered "gross" by ber offspring. 0f course you can always just go abead and buy wbat you tbink is appropriate but only if you're willing to put up with the tantrum tbat is sure to follow.

Dick com- pleted a B.A. in Religious Studies at the University of Windsor before going on to receive an M.A. in Divinity from Mc- Master Divinity College. Rev. Dick taught public school for several years before deciding to enter the ministry and was baptized in 1973 wben be joined Kingsville Baptist Churcb. He served as assistant pastor at lm- manual Baptist Cburch in Brantford and is presently pastor of Caledonia Baptist Chur- ch were be bas served for five years. Rev. Dick and bis wife Lynn were married in 1972 and bave two cbildren, Melissa who is 8 and Mathew, 5. of ber closet and threatened to stay there ahl year If she had to wear wbat ber mother had bought. She claimed ber life was ruined anyway and sbe'd be there yet If ber parents badn't refused to instaîl a telephone. Anotber approacb is to take the littie darlings with you and buy wbatever they pick out. I recom- mend this only if you're a millionaire or are prepared to spend the equivalent of a years salary and bit every shop from bhere to Ottawa. My own solution has been to give the child a specific allowance and send ber out on ber own if she can drive and if not, with a friend, preferably witb someone else's mother driving. Wbatever sbe chooses is what she's stuck with. I found that even- tually she learned to forgo the desgner labels and often frequents the flea markets and bargain basements to stretch. ber money. If you should decide on this approach, one word of warning. Be prepared the first time around for the little darling to come home with nothing but tbe change from a quarter, a buncb of empty McDonald's cartons, a size 40 psychedelic T-shirt with an obscene slogan and a rock album by the Slugs.
