Parents Pose Problems
For Younger Set
Up Newsfeatures

my parents are going to Eur
ope for a couple of months, and
am staying home" writes a 17-year
old boy. They have given me per-
mission to have mixed parties
while they are away. My steady
girl says she will not visit my
house while my parents are away.
She thinks my parents are out of
order and says her parents would
be shocked at the idea. / told her
my parents had confidence in me,
and that she should see it that
way. Don't you think she is show
ing a lack of trust in me?"
The question is not that your
parents have confidence in you,
and that therefore the girl should,
but rather the other parents do
not have confidence in you perhaps,
in situation such as you suggest.
Therefore, the girl has reasonable
doubts. Even in this day of relaxed
discipline, it is considered bad
taste for a girl to be alone with
boy in such situation though
others of her age are present. Per-
haps she and her parents could
be appeased by the presence of a
chaperone, and if you object to
that, they are justified in their
criticism.
my parents have invited my
boy friend to a dance at a club.
My father says the boy should
wear formal clothes. The boy says
he does not have a tuxedo, and
will not borrow one as he prefers
to wear a dark suit 1 am wearing
a formal evening gown. Should I
try to persuade my father to agree
that my date would be properly
attired in the dark suit?" That's
letter from a 16-year-old girl.
AS a member of club, your
father is committed to observing
the rules, so if he suggests formal
attire, it must be the order for
that evening. If the boy stubbornly
refused to go along with the idea,
you should get another date. Dis
cuss the situation with your father,
however. Many clubs are not strict
about such matters, and your IA
ther may have mentioned formal
attire without considering the
young mans wardrobe. Some young
men have definite dislike of fer
nal clothes being foisted on them,
and often it is bashfulness that
keeps them from climbing into
those duds. Once he has been sea-
sOned, the social bit comes easier
to young fellow.

friend, although l am overweight
and not very pretty. We have a
hobby of photography. This boy
was in one of my fathers classes
last year, and my father did give
him some special attention. l have
not heard from him since school
was out, and my girl friend says he
was only interested in my fathers
tutoring, and that l will not hear
from him until next fall, if then"
l would not worry about what
the friend thinks. Your guess is as
good as hers in this case, and she
is being very unkind to make such
comments. If the boy does commun-
icate with you, don't remind him
OF the lapse. 1t could be that this
boy does consider you a good
friend, and has no serious intent
ions.
