Adpice and ANSWERS to
Lovers Questions
By Be tty Vincent

NTANY letters come to me from
that their parents make life
miserable" for them. There is much
to be said on both sides Of this prob
lem. There is no doubt that most
parents earnestly wish TO do the best
they can for their children. They
love them and want them to turn out
fine men and women. Perhaps in
their oagerness TO discipline their boy
or girl into the finer qualities OF char
acter they overlook the fact that for
a child to be happy is as necessary
as for him to be healthy. In truth,
one largely depends upon the other.
Man cannot live by bread alone"
His spirit, too, must be fed. lie must
have education, liberty and some 10Y
II he is to be a normal human being.
Parents often look out for the bread
and the education and consider their
outy done. They forget. in the lapse
OF years, the needs OF their own
youthful hearts. And they think that
by throwing restrictions around their
half-grown girls and boys they pre-
vent their falling into temptation.
This is true unless the restrictions
are carried too far. when restraint
is too severe it results in the very
thing the parents desire TO avoid.
Human nature and human needs are
stronger than human restraints
They burst through them sooner or
fu.er. The wise parent recognizes
this, and while kecpin- a watchful
eye upon tho child does not try to cut
him off from normal play and happl-
ness.
On the other hand. the modern
young person is apt to want too much
hb,rty ana too highly favored amuse-
ments. Tho dance hall, tho movies,
tho table d'hotc dinner lure him
strongly The boy or girl who earns
hts or hor own living cannot SEQ why
nother objects to him spending his
-own money" without restriction and
Eecpng whatever hours he chooses.
The answer, Of course. is compro-
misc. Let mother and Mary and
father and Fred get together on the
proposition and thrcsh it out, good
humorcdly, frankly and fully. Chances
are that mother and dad will say:
"hll right, let's try it out. Go once
or twice week II you choose, but be
open and aboveboard. We want to
know where you go and whom you 20
with. We want you TO come home at
reasonable hour II you do this
Wen have confidence in your own
Judgment"
