Modern MARRIAGE

way, because it's a terrible thing
for a boy to grow up thinking
that he is Gods gift to women.
The way Nom treats him leads
him to believe that any other
woman ought to be delighted to
spend her life cooking his meals,
washing his clothes and sitting
in the living room every evening
mending his socks while he hides
behind the newspaper or listens
to sports on the radio.
If a man is as good as he knows
he is. he ought to be willing to
take lot of responsibility. a lot
of initiative in looking out for
his wife. But Nom didn't bring
him up that way, and when it
comes to matrimony. of course.
he wants girl lust like the girl
that married dear old Dad"
Especially in cities, Nom often
does great deal too much for
her sons or for an only son.
She drives him around when he
should take the bus. She waits
on him when he should wait on
her. When she is not feeling
well, she gets out of bed to fx
his meals, when he should be
getting meals for her and bring
ing them in on a tray.
I agree with you. Mrs. G., at
least in principle. Most boys
nowadays ought to be allowed.
or even forced. to take more
responsibility. to do more work
around the home and outside, to
be more self-reliant. They'd
still grow up thinking well Of
themselves-but they'd have more
reason to do so.
