JOHN.
Since you have been
friends with this boy for
seven years. you two should
be close enough to talk over
serious things. I suggest you
try to explain, automatically,
that his behavior makes him
appear to be much younger
than he really is.
Most teens want to appear
older than they are, so per-
haps this will shake him up
and he will try to behave in
0 more mature manner.
Good manners are the key
to getting along with others.

The chances Of you four
reforming this boy by moth
ering him are about as good
as those Of q chicken trying
to reform q fox. BY that I do
not mean that anyone who
needs help should not have
1t. Butt should be the

In this case, the boy needs
adult help, not the kind OF
first aid treatment you are
suggesting. AS you describe
the boy he is bully. has bad
manners, questionable morals
and apparently ne deserves
his poor reputation.
In view Of these facts I
think 1t would not be very
smart to risk your own repu-
tationS to try to save him.
Perhaps you know OF an
adult who can help him.
One last thing-I suspect
that you, too, are attracted
