Mrs. L.M. Greta's young
man will never amount to any
things. Greta M. All they think
about is money.
Mrs. L.M. My husband and
I are trying to prevent our 20-year-old
daughter, Greta, from
making a very foolish mistake.
A fine young man of 28 wants
to marry her. He is handsome,
makes an excellent living and
comes of one of the nicest fam
ilies in our community. His par
ents are crazy about Greta and
are just as eager for this mar
riage as we are.
Instead, Greta wants to marry
a boy of 21, who is really no
where and has nothing to offer
her. He has never worked stead
ily at anything. He talks of go
ing to college, but we don't see
him making any move to sup
port himself through his school
ing. He is shy, awkward and
childish and doesn't look as
though he'll ever amount to any
thing.
Grela M. All my parents
think about is money. They mar
ried my sister off to a wealthy
man and she is very unhappy in
her marriage. She told me not
to let them do the same thing
to me. She says I should stick
to my guns. I would be much
better off marrying a poor boy
I really love.
My parents spoiled my sister
and me by always giving us
everything and teaching us to
expect to always have "the
best." But I am not afraid of
hard work. Many girls help their
husbands through college these
days and I would like to do the
same.
The boy I want to marrv is
really very brilliant and talent
ed and l know he will amount
to something someday. Then my
parents will see how wrong they
were.

The Council: Too much of the :
wrong kind of pressure is fore- j
ing Greta to take a stand she ;
could regret. i
The young man Greta cares !
for may be all that she says he j
is, but she does not appear to
be very well equipped to evalu
ate him.
For one thing, her belief that
her parents are trying to foist
a "money marriage" off on her
has caused her to turn in the
opposite direction and romantic-!
ize poverty. She is now eager to
meet the challenge of "hard
work" but she may not find it
very glamorous to support a hus
band through four long years of
college. She does not appear to
be facing very realistically the!
possibility of additions to the i
family. I
For another thing, Greta ap-!
pears much too anxious to prove
something to her parents by
this marriage. She insists that
her younng man is brilliant and
talented, but what if he turns
out to fall somewhat short of
her expecations? What if he
doesn't "amount to something"?
Will she love him? Will she
know how to make her marriage
succeed if she can't prove to
her parents how wrong they
were?
These parents should stop try-1
ing to pressure Greta into marry-1
ing a man she doesn't want, j
They should try to understand
her attitudes and to make their
own way more clear. If money
is not the standard by which
they evaluate prospective hus
bands, they should let Greta
know what they do value. They
should show that they have an
open mind about all her friends
and are willing to see and ap
preciate good qualities in men
who are not particularly well
off.
