Her mother even sits a ro u n d and chaperones if Sylvia brings a friend in at the end of a date. It is hard to believe things like that go on in this day and age, but with Sylvia they do. Now Sylvia has an oppor tunity for marriage. This man has been divorced twice, but he is a real nice guy with a good job. Sylvia's mother has been raising the roof. She has even threatened to kill herself if Sylvia goes through with this thing. Sylvia knows as well as I do that her mother won't kill herself. Sylvia K. - It's true that Mother would probably never carry through her threat to kill herself, but I wonder whether I have the right to put her through all this agony. Divorce to her is the most awful thing in the world. She was brought up in a little village in Europe and has never adjusted to American ways. If I married this man, I just don't know what I would do about Mother. I can't leave her by herself and she would n't live in the same house with him. I would be torn between the devil and the deep blue sea. The possibility of marriage seems very exciting to me now that I'd just about given up all hope. I don't know whether I'll ever get another chance. Jane keeps telling me I've just got to break out of my shell. I want to . . . and yet . . . The Council: Jane appears to be a good and sympathetic friend, but she should recog nize that nobody can solve another's problems. The at tempt to do so could make matters worse. We agree that Sylvia's sit uation with her mother is ter rible and that she should break out of her shell, but, that doesn't mean that this particular marriage is the best thing for her. Sylvia herself seems to see the marriage as the one hope for her to break out of her prison. Well, that just isn't so. She might very well wake up and find herself in an even worse prison. Sylvia doesn't speak of the man involved at all - only of her feeling of desperation and her worry about her mother. Perhaps she doesn't view di vorce with her mother's eyes, but she must also recognize that divorce is not a trivial matter. A man with two fail ures in his background has some fairly serious problems. A frightened and overprotect ed girl like Sylvia has little chance of working against heavy odds to make a suc cessful marriage. Sylvia must recognize that problems cannot be solved by taking a desperate gamble no matter how friends may urge it. Sylvia's problem calls for careful thought, firmness and courage. She is far more dependent upon her mother than she realizes. She must outgrow this by- recognizing that she is an adult and that she has rights and responsi bilities for her own life. Sylvia should strive for a broader social life and she should insist upon the degree of freedom that is befitting a woman of her age. She now takes refuge behind her moth er's domineering skirts. When she learns to stand on her own feet, she will find that her mother is not all-powerful and that the world still holds many opportunities for happiness. (Copyright 1959, General , Features Corp.)
