MIKE S.--My wife, Elaine. and
II were both members of a fast
lset before our marriage, and now
our children have arrived at the
age period when we had run wild.
We have two children. q boy

takes the attitude that we as
parents viii be nd better able to
control these children than our
parents had been when we were
young. / feel that we had more

children may be ruined If they
Iare not properly guided.

parents had a false confidence

thing the children may do, be-
cause my husband would be sure

THE COUNCILS VIEWS
Both parents are paying, each
lin a different way, the price Of
early misconduct. They are pay
ling with warped attitudes to-
ward their children. They are re-
acting rather blindlys to the
falseness of their own relation
iship with their parents.
II they want to stop this price
from becoming tragic they should
take themselves in hand and
lstraighten out their thinking.
Mike should not assume that his
children are naturally deceitfuI
and immoral: his wife should not
assume that children cannot be
successfully guided.
It is a terrible mistake TO
abandon children to a norm
They should be treated. not as
members of a nondescript young
mob, but as individuals. They
should be informed and advised
lin a way that is free from hys-
terra. accusation or pre-judg-
lmentA but they definitely should
be made aware of their parents
wishes and viewpoints.
Mike and his wife deceived
their parents. but they have
come to regret that. They prof.
ted. nevertheless. from being
aware of their parents standards.
That alone enabled them to grow
out of their loose stage and Gre
late a decent family.
It Is now their duty to, give
their children standards.
