gift Dear Ann Landers am writing regarding your recent column Ten Rules For Raising Children would ap preciate an explanation regarding Rule No Remember that child is agift froerpd Do you truly believe that the good Lord sends gift to the abusive mother the prostitute the unwed teenager not to mention the millions of disadvantaged who cant feed the children they already have and certainly dont need another gift Do you also believe that He deprives the multitude of indi viduals who so dearly want this gift Perhaps you should set your readers straight and tell them that Nature plays the greatest role in determining who is to have and who is NOT to have children feel confident that God would not waste His time sending gifts to those who do not want themOne Who Has Been There Dear One do not believe God giftwraps babies and sends them via United Parcel to individuals whom He wishes to favor do believe however that the miracle of life in itself is proof that there is God Only greater power could have dreamed up something so unique and so biologically perfect as Man and Woman Just imagineof the billions of people who have been born silnï¬e the beginning of time no two humans were exactly When Isay Rember that child is gift of God mean there is the magic of God in every humanyes even if his mother was prostitute or unwed or disadvantaged Dear Ann Landers Why dont you get out of that ivory tower or that bayloftor wherever it is that you write your column You advise kids who write to you about their problems Talk to your guidance counsellor Well we have two guidance counsellors in our school One is creep and the other is so busy polishing her nails talking on the phone and eating pretzels that she doesnt have any time for us My cousin who lives 50 miles from here goes to school that doesnt even have guidance counsellor So why dont you give these kids the help they needTumed Off Dear Off First the parents in your school should get to gether and see to it that the creep and the pretzel eater are replaced Second the next letter might be of some interest to you Dear Ann Landers Our school is rather small We dont have guidance counsellor But we do have an English teacher who is one of the neatest ladies who ever lived Whenever have problem ask her for few minutes of her time She has never failed me feel so close to her al most like she is my older sister She can tell if Im upset or angry or down Sometimes she even asks me to stay and tell her whats bugging me So maybe if those kids who dont like their counsellors or dont have one would go to teacher they really like it would accomplish the same thinghateful Roseanne Mcggbg This folk group is out of tune Its blessing Im not schoolteacher blessing for me and for the the students Patience is indeed virtue dont have had the opportunity to play teacher in one sense last weekend My 16yearold sister belongs to folk group She asked me to listen in to see how they wore doing The group had just formed Were haying trouble getting organized she said went to practice There are 12 of them in the group Four play guitar in cluding my sister Problem one they were all leaders Each was the best

answered Problem two they all though they were Joni Mitchells and John Denvers They finally tuned their guitars Strum strum they started into Country Roads sim ple enough song They sounded acceptable until the chorus One boy went wailing off on his own ut What are you doing Im harmonizing he said Problem number three was choice of songs for the occa sion they happened to be practising fora folk
