Dear Aon: My son Is 32 years n'd. nice-looking and has a wonder ful job. He makes $10,000 a year and has saved over $10,000 thrt I mow of. But his stinginess is making me crazy. He refuses to lake cut a 4irl btcaus It costs money. He von't go to a movie because he can see it free a few years later vt TV. His car is seven years old but he refuses to buy a new one ireause the one he h?s "gets him vhere hr's going. " He wrars his wits till they fall apart. When his shoe laces break he tiesithem to gether. According tr him everyone Is jealous or "after som-thing" so naturally he has no friends. How can I get him to see there's more lo life than living for the dollar? He thinks you're a smart woman. Maybe he'll listen to you. Miser's MonW. Dur Mitw's Mothw: Your ton isn't living ht's axltting, poor thing. Anvon. who has such a fix en th. dollar is' tick. H.'d probably rtUM to get pro fessional help btcauM it w.uld cost something. Stop begging him to let th moths ut of hit wallet. Instead, remind him oc casionally that he isn't getting any younger and suggest soma worthy charity or a needy rela tive who ought to be remember ed in his big fat will. Dear Ann: I married a divorced man last year. This was my first marriage and I'm no kid. I'm frank to admit I don't care for children and never did. My husband has two tren-aec daughters by his first niarri.:i:n. He gets custody 8 weeks every summer. Thry moved in lust week and I'm a wreck. To begin with he pays S2r0 a month support mrncv which m-ars la healthy slice out of our income. The girls wear nicer clothes tVn I do. They are laiy. sleep late and don't pick up after themselvs. When Ihey make a bed I have to make it over. They're a nuisance in the kitchen becaus they don't know how to do anything. I mentioned this to my husband last night and he gave me a long icy look and said, "They are MY daughters and 1 don't want to hear any complaints against them." Is this fair lo mo, Ann? TaMered Nerve. : Dear Tittered: When you mer ry a divorced man with a family, you buy the total package step children, support checks, ex wife, a man with built-in mem ories and roo?s elsewhere. These girls may mean nothing to you but lest money and more work, but to your husband they at the stars in hit crown. If they don't know how to make a bed or pre pare a meal, teach them. Don't pick up after them. Lot them know in a friendly but firm mm ner, what's expected and they'll toe the line. Build bridges with these girls not fences or you may find YOU'RE the on on thn outside.
