world is full of many wonders and that learning
things adds zest to living Keep encouraging her to
try foods activities she thinks she dslikes.
Later, she will adapt better to the interests her hus
band might have.
Teach her nerer to pull herself up by pulling
someone else dOtcn. She needs to learn that every
person has a right to opinion anything. If she
learns this early and applies it to her married lfe
