-GILBERT'S "Mat Young People Think'
Young
On The
While today's Junior and Junior
Miss don't rule the household
roost, our teenagers aren't the sub
missive youngsters of Victorian
times.'
That's one thing that stood out
when we asked 993 young people
how they get along with their
parents.
Ninety per cent replied they are
not afraid of their parents. And
although the majority 88 per
cent respect their folks, 18 per
cent feel that better education has
made them equal to their parents.
Bill Reuther, 18, of Coral Gables,
Fla., spoke for many teeners
when he said, "No one should be
afraid of their parents. They are
there to help."
Indicating modern frankness in
parent-child relationships, 46 per
cent of the boys and 61 per cent
of the girls discuss sexual mat
ters with their parents; 26 per
cent use profanity in front of their
parents although 74 per cent
ao not.
"We live In a frank, relaxed
atmosphere," is the way M. J.
Gordon, 16, of Charlottesville, Va.,
explains it.
An overwhelming majority of
young people Vi per cent
feel their parents are doing a good
job in bringing them up. Eighty-
biji per vein ueueve n is uuiiuuu
to be good parents' these days.
Over-Protective?
"They have so many outside
pressures, says Ann Hooper, n,
of Hingham, Mass.
Eugene Dayton, 17, of DeKalb,
111., spoke for many when he said
parents err in trying to give their
: children too much. Eugene feels
his own parents are doing a good
job "because I don't get every
thing l want ana l am given re
snonsibilitv."
The teeners were split on wheth
er it is difficult to be a good
child, with 49 per cent saying yes
and 48 per cent saying no. Boys
apparently find it harder 54 per
cent gave yes answers compared
with 44 Der cent of the girls.
"I'm always doing some thing
wrong, complains KoDert McDon
ald. 16. of Waterbury, Conn.

people feel the fact that they are
better educated makes them su
perior to their parents, Woody Kee,
17, of Evanston, 111., says, "My
parents still know a lot more than
I think they do."
As for confidine in' their par
ents, 62 per cent of the girls and
56 per cent of tne ooys say iney ao.
Most young people ageed with
Arlene Friedman, 16, of Miami
Beach, who says, "It helps solve
my problems and makes me feel
closer to my parents."
As for discussing their dates,
the teen-agers find mother the
most sympathetic listener. Among
the boys,- 22 per cent, talk things
over with her.
Thirty-seven per cent of the
girls talk over dates with their
fathers but none of the boys do.
Incidentally, most of the boys 44
per cent do not discuss dales
with either parent.
Sax Not Hidden -
Among the S3 per cent of teeners
who discuss sex with their parents,
47 per cent feel no embarrassment
while 5 per cent do.
Expressing the majority! view
was Michael B. Allison, 18, of Cor
al Gables, Fla., who says, "Sex is
hot a subject to hide behind sa
cred cloaks such taboos are
absurd."
But a number of young people
say they have learned the essen
tials from their contemporaries
,and feel there is nothing further to
discuss Willi ineir parents.
Annabelle Press, 16, of Miami
Beach, explains, "When I start to
talk about it, they change the sub
ject, saying when I'm old enough
I'll know everything as if 1
don't know now."
We asked teeners whether they
ever lie to their parents and got
this result: Yes, 56 per cent of
the boys and 47 per cent of the
girls; No, 44 per cent of the boys
and 49 per cent of the girls.
As might be expected, those who
admit lying consider it a good
risk rather than face the conse
quences of admitting their wrongdoing.
"Sometimes I have to tell a lie
when I do something my parents
I disapprove of," says Buddy An
derson, 17, Fresno, Calif. And
Woody Kee, 17, of Evanston, 111.,
says ne lies "only wncn mcy pry
too much."
Want Adult Treatment
We asked the young people for
suggestions on how parents could
improve their relationship and
got some pointed replies! "Not to
ask so many questions" (a boy,
18); "More freedom about who
I go out with" (a girl, 16); They
should show more concern and af
fection for me" (a girl, 16); "Not
use physical force- to convey a
point" (a boy, 17)..
Perhaps the majority feeling
was expressed by Carole Ervin,
17, of Haines City, Fla., who sug
gested that parents "listen to our
problems and try to understand;
consider us more adult and let
us make some decisions."
We asked the teen-agers whether
they expect to be better parents
and found that 56 per cent will
be satisfied to do as well as their
own folks; 36 per cent think they
will do better.
"I think 1 Will possess their
knowlege of parenthood plus my
own," says Linda Gustafson, 16, of
Hingham, Mass.
But Buddy Anderson, 17,' of
Fresno, Calif., says fankly, "I
don't have the patience they have."
And Sue Katman, 15, of Jam
aica, N. Y., says, "I'll try to re
member how 1 felt to be young
and treat my children according
ly." . .

Douglas County Goes Along
With State On Most Issues
Douglas County went along with
the rest of the state in Oregon in
approving or rejecting major is
sues on Tuesday's General Elec
tion ballot.
Soundly thumped were daylight
saving time, state building bonds,
personal income tax and billboard
control me.rures. Given over
whelming approval on items of ma
jor interest were education build
ing bonds and the veteran loan
limit. However, some issues not
expected to be strongly contested
were surprisingly close and unde
termined on the local level.
The county, with 98 precincts
complete out of 99, showed its
strong disapproval of any issue
that might alter the tax picture.

PORTLAND (AP) A woman

eight days in her southeast Port

worried over not seeing her or
her husband. -,

as they called an ambulance and
took her to the hospital where her
condition was called satisfactory.
She said she had been bedridden
for. some time. When her husband
did not awaken the morning of
Oct. 31, she got out of her bed and
tried to get across to his. She fell.
She tried again and failed again.
And then, for days, she lay with
out food or water until deputies
broke into her house Tuesday evening.
The state building bonds issue met

7490 yes to 13,955 no. The income
tax issue was soundly trounced

the no vote being 18,512.
The daylight saving time went
down to defeat more than 2 to 1,
