As We Live By ELIZABETH HUtLOOC PH.D. WIDOWER SHOULD PUT OWN INTERESTS FIRST There are times when a Derson must think about himself and his interests first. ((Q) "My wife died ten years ago when my two daughters were in iheir teens. They both begged me not i to remarry, as 4 they had heard i from some of 1 TA rn V SJ Iheir friends 1 about how I stepm others Dr. Herlock stepm treat their step daughitr s. They claimed that they could take care of the home and they did more than irost girls their age. I had my widowed mother come to live with us and things worked out pretty well, though I was lonely. My daughters were out on dates most evenings, and my mother, whose health was none too good, went to bed early. "Now my daughters are both married and in homes of their own. My mother passed away a year ago, and I am all alone. I have met a woman nearly my age a widow with a 16-year-old daughter. I have been seeing quite a lot of her and my daugh ters have heard about it. They are both very much upset at the prospect of my remarrying and urge me to come and live with one of them. I feel that I would be a fifth wheel on the wagon with either of them, and I prefer to be in my own home, perhaps with this widow as my wife. Should I listen to them as I did after their mother died?" J.R. (A) No, you should not listen to your daughters now. You were wise to listen to their pleas when they were teenagers because, feeling as they did about a step mother, life would have been very difficult for you had you remarried. . But things have changed. Your daughters have their own homes and you no longer have the com panionship of your mother. Why shouldn't you think of your own interests first now? Happy Marriage Possible - If you are fond of this widow, if you and she are companion able, and if her daughter does not have the antagonistic atti tude toward a stepfather that your own daughters had toward a stepmother, there is no reason why you should not have a happy marriage. Give your daughters an oppor tunity to get to know this widow and her daughter, but do not al low their attitudes to influence your final decision. If they re fuse to accept her as a member of the family, they will be the losers. They surely must see that tnis would be a better solution to your problem than going to live with either of them.
