My wife resents being a mother. - Dorothy K. Why can't he help me more? Ranald K Mv wife and I have been married ten years and have three young children. We are having trouble because my wife resents her role as mother. Of course. I know that Doro thy loves the children and wants to do .her best for them, but she doesn't seem really happy and is often verv short-tempered with them. She says she can't wait until I get home and "take over." I don't mind doing this a few evenings a week, but sometimes I'm verv tired when I get home and just want to relax without them. On such evenings we al ways have a bitter quarrel. Now I am beginning to De afraid that the children are suf fering from lack of mother love. They often throw up at us what other parents do for their child ren. Things have just gone too m I sufferine from lack of father love, if anything. Roniie is full of rules about what "mother love" is supposed to consist of, but he hasn't any rules for him self. Evidently Father can ex press his love whenever he has time or is in the mood, but Mother's must be expressed 24 hours a day. I realize that I am often short tempered with the children, but I just can't help myself. Some times they get on my nerves so much I feel like screaming. It's not that I resent my "role as mother," but just that I can't be a perfect mother every min- r M DM SALE OPEN WEDNESDAY NIGHT O To make room for new spring shipments, we are closing put the following patterns of nationally advertised Carpeting Rugs & Inlaid Linoleum at Greatly Reduced Prices!!!

I held a very demanding job before I was married and I was able to discharge my duties ef ficiently and still have energy at the end of the day. I don't see why Ronnie can't help me more when he comes home. The Council: Ronald's accusa tion are very cruel and probably unfair. They . are aimed to hurt his wife and make her feel guilty rather than help her with what ever problem she . has in con nection with the children. Dorothy appears to be definite ly overstrained. This state does not necessarily come from too much work. It could come from too little variety, a lack of things to look forward to. Today's wo men have had educational and career advantages and often feel futile and frustrated when they are tied down to a daily, un relieved household grind. Dorothy should make it her business to set aside one or two definite evenings a week as be ing exclusively her own. Ronald should agree to take over on those evenings, regardless of how he feels. There will be no quarrels if the evening or even ings have been definitely set. Dorothy should use that time to develop an interest that can be expanded during whatever free times she can grab on afternoons or' other evenings. Many women have found fun in art or music courses and they get additional pleasure out of the homework for these courses. Ronald should recognize that it takes a whole, happy person to give mother love and, in order to be whole and happy, any in dividual needs more than one in terest. (Copyright 1957.
