THE GSHAWA TIMSS, Mother's Helper Cares For Children Cmcues 'By ROBERTA ROESCH { Dear Roberta Roesch: What , does & helper involve, and exactly | much household work should a al ge ir va this job be ex- to do I'm interested in getting this information just as soon as pds- stble, because my teenage daughter has just received a last-minute job offer to be a mother's helper at a seashore resort for the last three weeks in August. She herself is dying to go be- cause she thinks it will be a vacation. But I've heard many stories in the past about girls who've been hired to take care of children and they came home at the end of the summer, and reported that they were maids of all work while the mothers slept and lounged -- Mrs, V.M. Dear Mrs. V.M.: Usually a mother's helper is expected to assume most of the care of the children.

It's also very probable that a girl who's a mother's helper will be responsible for washing and froning and caring for the chil- dren's clothes. SPECIFIC DETAILS To be sure of what the par- ticular job you have in mind involves, however, find out ahead of time. exactly what she will be expected to do and what specific times she will have to herself. This is important. Human na- ture being what it is, sometimes an employer will take advant- age of this job and, as you say, ask for complete maid service, 0. A certain amount is all right, of course. But no mother's helper should be expected to do the work of a grown - up, full time housemaid. Dear Roberta Roesch: I'm 42 years old and my youngest son will enter college this fall. When he leaves home, I hope to take some courses and prepare my- self for a job in what my hus- band calls a highly competitive field. But because of my age, my husband is trying to discour- age me. He feels I would do better to take a routine job that doesnt' require the expense of training. Is he right--Mrs. J.H. Dear Mrs. J.H.: When you're 42 years of age and have shown by community work, hobbies, past experiences and interests and, possibly, vocational tests that you have what it takes to do a good job in the field you have in mind, you're not too old to do something about it. Even in a highly competitive field, there's always room for another when that person has talent, ambition, and something original to offer. WOMAN MAY NOT JOIN GUELPH, Ont.
