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.
