Writes a Minnesota mother: "We have a four-year-old girl | and my husband and I don't agree | on raising her. He has the notion | that a child should be waited on hand and foot when she demands it. "When I can't come to her aid, she cries. This morning I couldn't drop what I was doing and told her I was busy. Of course she started to cry and cried until he went to her aid. ARGUMENT STARTED "This started an argument. He said she shouldn't be made to wait, Well, I think he is wrong as she will have to wait one way or another all her life "He jumps for her at her demand and she expects it of everyone else, too. As a result, she is demanding and bossy when playing with chil- dren." Sympathetically, the mother adds: can see why he thinks as he does. His parents didn't get along and he had no use for his father. Of course, his mother was too busy to show him any love and, as a result, he is showering and smothering his own child with love he never had. I t isn't love to my way of thinking. You love a child when you bring it up the best way you know how." NEEDS DISCIPLINE Here is how I wrote this mother: I think you are quite right about your child needing discipline and training in self-reliance. But you Discipling Their Tot still have the sable of winging of A 'an him and criticise him before the child, you only will make him worse.

But now I know I must learn to live the rest of my life with Jim as| he is) or face the cold world alone -which I am totally unprepared to do. Being from an underpriv- ileged family 1 didn't finish high school. Jim has been a good provider, | and the children (now married) and I always had food and cloth- ing--although at times I had dif- ficulty getting the latter. For some peculiar reason Jim felt it more important to have a houseful of | furnitufe than to own a pair of| socks without holes Now with our house half paid for, and more margin for saving and spending, you might think we could relax and get more pleasure out of life; but I am more miserable | than ever. When the children were here we couldn't afford a car; and | now that we can, Jim says he | never expects to own one--| "They're too expensive," he puts it. So my hope of .going out in| a car~of our own is shattered. NO UNDERSTANDING I love our house and take great | pride in it, and completely please | Jim in cooking and housekeeping. | He is satisfied as long as I do| exactly as he likes, but one must | have a change of scene occa-| sionally, and Jim shows no under- | standing of that.

NOT UNCOMMON Dear R. F.: It seems you were a bride at 18, and you've been married 24 years, which puts your age at about 42--a comparativliey youthful age nowadays. No wonder you feel explosive with discontent, as Jim stolidly refuses to accept the larger life you both might have, since the children are launched and your money goes farther. As Jim's attitude won't yield to a direct appeal to reason, you face a challenge to grow in spite of the obstacle he poses. How to do this? By acting to make the best of your sifuation, not leaning limpl towards him for leadership or fet. lowship. Jim's pennypinch psychology is a blend of selfishness and anxiety. It reflects defensiveness and pes- simism carried over from a cheer- less childhood and youth, Don't fight it; but don't let your spirit be broken by it. If you haven't a cdr in which to get around, remember there are other modes of transportation: 1. Walking, a splendid tonic for mind and body. 2. Streetcar, taxi and bus in the city from which you write. 3. Trains and busses for cross-coun- try travel, also planes for "those who prefer.

Miss Sissons, who is in charge of guidance and personnel work, ex- lained that guidance was taught fo help the child to understand and to pare himself to face the lll was aimed toward help- ing him to live socially, to do teamwork and to adjust himself and to be prepared to meet the public. Also to help him to under- stand his own mind and to de- velop his own capacities. She concluded her talk by out- lining the courses of study avail- able to pupils entering Grade 9. Miss Sissons also brought with her a film entitled 'Beginning to Date." Mrs. D. 1. MacLeod introduced the speaker and following the showing of the film, the thanks of the Association were expressed by Mrs. John Swan. The theme of the meeting was 'Parent Educa- tion" under the convenership of Mrs. John Linklater. The report of the ittee was pr y Mrs. Walter Johnson, chairman. Mrs. A. W. Armstrong, chairman of the finance committee, gave her re- port.

It should turn your thoughts away from domestic tedium and fret, and give you fresh fields of in- terest to browse in. It should give back significance to your days; restore a quickness-of-being that vanished when the children took wing. Here is the crux of your recent gejection, I think--this let- down feeling that life has lost meaning and hope. It isn't uncommon for couples in middle age to suddenly see their situation stripped of illusions, and certain chronic frustrations starkly exposed--as the bustle of childrear- ing recedes. They recognize the meagerness of their alliance, and come down with melancholia, or break loose in philandering--a phe- nomenon once known as middle- aged madness. You are in such a crisis now, and the cure is to get in the swim of the larger life, to serve the greater good. Once your children are grown, you should thenceforth belong more to human- ity than to the home. --M.H.
