C. D. S.: You have helped so
many people so l am bringing my
problem to you. am married and
have one child. My husband doesn't
seem to care for me any more. l
love my husband very much. You
see he has been married once be-
fore and has four children for his
first wife. l think that he still loves
her. But l don't know what to do.
He is always getting mad with me
and leaving without letting me
know where he is going. Please
help me to make up my mind what
to do.
Ans: Drifting along aimlessly as
you are doing now is not the thing
to do. Talk to your husband i'm
mediately and demand that he make
decision between you and the
other wife so that you will know
exactly how you stand. If you be-
lieve your husband is still in love
with his first wife, then you can't
expect to find happiness with him
under these conditions. You are
young and capable of holding a good
job and if worst should come your
way you possess the initiative to
stand on your own and find your
happiness elsewhere.
A. B.: l am writing you to learn
some way in getting my little
grandchildren to go to school. They
are boys and used to be real smart
but they have gotten to the place
that they don't want to go any
more.
