"Dear Mrs. Seifert: 'The rebellion and antagon ism of our 14 year old son is upsetting our home and driving my husband and me to distrac tion. Any suggestions we make about clothing. or manners, any rules we lay down about be havior or work are all met with defiance. Bobby seems to go out of his way to do the opposite of what we wish, no matter how tactful we try to be. He actual ly seems to hate us at times. Are all teen agers so hard to manage and what do parents do about them?" "From Two Distracted Parents." The average adolescent lives in a confused world between childhood and adulthood. He is neither a child to be given un limited freedom, nor an adult to be entrusted with unlimited responsibility. He is neither fish nor fowl, yet a bit of both. He resents the remnants of his baby dependence, yet part of him clings to this security, re luctant to give it up. Still an other part of him wants des perately to be a MAN, prefer ably nine feet tall, free to make and break decisions, respected, admired, feared. He needs his parents, yet he resents them all in the same surge of emotion. The apparent strength of his oc casional seeming hatred often tends to show the strength of his dependence and his need for se curity. His "no" often means "yes," and his resentment is fre quently the outward covering of fear. The average parents are us ually both dismayed and out raged by their teenager's rebel lion. They mi y be so shocked by his outbursts that they do not see that he has problems of his own age, which must be met Steward Will Attend Agriculture Meeting Salem (IP) Oregon Agri culture Director Robert J. Stew ard left today for the annual meeting of the National As sociation of Directors of Agri culture in Portsmouth, N.H., Sept. 29 to Oct. 3.
