Guilt Complex Causes Wife's Unhealthy Ideas Sometimes a dead person can have more influence on a life than when he or she "was alive. m U i nTr t felt my wife was close to her mother un til after the mother's death two years ago. She died very suddenly of a L - -"-1 i nearz anacic if " IHm and we ' were Dr. Herlock away on va cation at the time. My wife was so upset about not being with her mother when she died, that she seems to have developed a guilt complex about lha matter. Now she constantly says. 'I won der now Mother would feel about this or 'I don't think Mother would approve of that if she were still here.' I believe my wife is influenced more bv what she thinks her mother might want than by what she herself thinks and feels. This i an un. healthy attitude but I don't know now 10 max. ner see it that way, What would vou moaest?" J.R.D. (A) As your wife's feelings about her mother unquestion ably stem from feelincs of euilt your first attack on the problem is to cure your wife of her guilt complex. Then her whole atti tude will automatically change. It might help if you talked to the doctor who took care of your mother-in-law.. Find out. how lone she had . heart trouble and if her heartattack was unex pected.. If so, .your wife would not have known there was any possibility of her mother's death wnen sne went away lor the va cation. Once rid of the idea that she must compensate for not being at her mother's bedside, I am sure your wife will refer less ana less to her mother s possible wishes and feelings. It may take a long time for your wife to get over this. Don't antagonize her by saying she is iooiish to be influenced that way. Merely" divert her thinkinc to what you believe would be best ior ner.-and jhis will eventually dominate ner decisions. (Copyright 1355, General Features Corp.)
