Answer: You cut the bottom tier
into small slices. This is usually
the only tier of cake-the upper

Modern
Marriage
By Dr.. Paul Popenoe

The marriage class is having a
postgraduate session.
Several of us were graduated
from high school last June" Vir-
ginia writes. I'VE had a pretty
good course in family relations
in our senior year. During the
summer we have been talking
things over among ourselves and
with some of the younger girls IN
the neighborhood, and We can't
imagine why a course like this
wasn't given to us when We start
ed high school. instead of when
we finished. We needed it even
more at the beginning, and it,
would have saved trouble for some
of us.
also. we can't figure why some
of our parents are so unwilling
to have us date boys. The younger
girls feel particularly resentful.
In school we are with boys all
day. Why do our parents think
we can't be trusted with them IN
the evening, or that there is some
thing wrong about going to the
movies together? What's the mat
ter with parents. DR.. Popenoe?"
Plenty, Virginia. I can speak
freely, being one myself! But the
problem you describe is a COM
mon one and should be consid-
cred. There are many reasons why
some parents are so unwilling to
let their daughters have dates.
For instance:
/. Some parents still have the
patterns of "the old country, "
where a girl was not allowed to
go out alone until after marriage
2. Most parents have a more
or less unconscious fear that dat
ing might end in early marriage
for which they feel correctly
that the youngsters are unpre-
pared, financially and in all other
ways.
3. Even more widespread and
terrifying to parents is the fear
that these friendships may lead
to improper relations. In many
instances they recognize that they
have failed to give their young
people the protection of accurate
information and soundly based
ideals and standards of behavior
they have refused to talk about
the subject of sex at all. If yours
are in that group, write me in
care of The Star Enclosing a
stamped, self-addressed envelope)
and I'll send a list of material
they can get to enable them te
educate you-and themselves
successfully.
4. Some parents cling pathet-
ically to the idea that they them
selves are still young and II the
youngsters begin to date. it makes
them feel old. They would like tt
consider the teen-agers as chill
dren who are still dependent or
papa and mamma for everything
including companionship.

to go out on the right kind o
dates. Parents who try to holt
them back after that are doinI
them a great disservice.
