His clothes have to be green or he won't wear them. When he gets a chance to select his toys, he always looks for the green ones. He loves green foods and neglects every thing else. He hopes that because I shampoo his hair with green shampoos his hair will turn green. I love my son very much, but we don't see eye-to-eye on this green business. He doesn't do this just to bug me. He is really gone on green. Is this problem serious enough to consult a child phychologist? WORRIED DEAR WORRIED: Maybe. The boy's preference for green can't do any real harm unless you allow him to carry it to ex tremes. Perhaps It is only a phase. If he doesn't outgrow it, by all means take him to a child psychologist. DEAR ABBY: My daughter-in-law is a pleasant enough person. She is a good mother and housekeeper, and my son seems to be satisfied with her. But she is a "ME" and "MINE" person. She says, "MY house, MY children, MY car and MY everything." Don't you think she should be thoughtful enough of her husband's efforts to say "OUR" instead? She reads your column. DISGUSTED MOTHER-IN-LAW DEAR DISGUSTED: Yes, but don't be too critical. Her personal performance is more important than her possessive pronouns. CONFIDENTIAL TO SAMMY: When the cat's away, some mice act like rats. Next time stay home.
