She's afraid of what others will think. Mildred K. He's trying to shock my mother. Gerald K. My brother Tom made a very bad marriage at the age of 19 and now, seven years and two children later, is separated and getting a divorce. I invited him to come to live with us for a while be cause divorce laws are easier in our state and because his funds are very low. He has been with us two months and has been no trouble at all, Recently he asked whether we would mind having a certain young woman come to stay for a week. He explained that they are. going to be married as soon as the divorce be comes final. I see no harm in this. I would like to do it, but my wife objects not because of herself but because of what others might think. To me this is just stupid. Mildred K. I am no Puri tan and I don't live for public opinion in other things, but I find this downright embarras sing. I know that my brother-in-law expects to share his room with this woman. It isn't by business what he does, but I don't see why I should have to put up with his doing it in front of my family, friends, neighbors and children. I am particularly tipset be cause of my mother. She is very rigid in her standards. She doesn't believe in divorce at all. She nearly hit the roof when she heard about Tom and our taking him in. What will . she think? I feel that Gerald wants to do this just to get my mother's ' goat. He never liked her and always tries to shock her. The Council: Tom definitely abuses this family's hospital ity. Whatever he expects in the way of sleeping arrange ments, the visit of the young woman will be open to inter pretation by others and he has no right to put his brother's family in the position of ap pearing to foster his illicit re lationships. The most he would have a right to ask is that the young woman be invited for the day as a friendly visit. He should make arrangements for her to stay over elsewhere if the length of the trip demands that she stay for more than one day. We are rather surprised, however, that Mildred is more concerned wth what her mother thinks than what her children think. The fact that this question doesn't seem to occur to Gerald either, sug gests to us that Mildred may be right that Gerald would enjoy offending Mildred s mother. This brings up an entirely separate marital issue that un doubtedly is at the heart of other problems that arise be tween these two. Mildred ap pears to be childishly dominat ed by her mother to the point where she does not dare to have any standards of her down. She has every right to object to Tom's proposal be cause of her own beliefs and feelings. But we have a notion she is too mother-scared to know what her own opinions are. Gerald, sensing that he only has half a wife as long as Mildred remains this way, tries to battle the "old lady." This will get him no place. Mildred must free herself, grow into her own mature standards. She will agree with her mother about many things and differ about others. But she won't be afraid. , (Copyright 1959.
