Mrs. J. F. Eunice's friend
is a bad influence.
Eunice F. She's different-
I want experience.
Mrs. J, F. My husband and
I are very worried about our
21-year-old daughter, Eunice.
For the past-year she has
been going around with a girl
aoout wnom mere nas Been
unpleasant talk in the com
munity. This girl is said to
have been involved in some
sort of scandal in her home
community. She came here
last year to stay with her aunt
and uncle. Our daughter met
her at a secretarial school and
they've been fast friends ever
since.
Since she has met this girl,
Eunice has gone out with all
kinds of men who are not like
those she used to know
through school or our family
friends or church. I'm not say
ing anything against them, but
after all, many of them are
not of our faith and I can't
see why Eunice should want
to spend time with them. She
says she intends to marry in
our faith,
i
- Eunice F. My parents are
so narrow and small town in
their outlook. I hope I'll never
become like that. I don't con
sider myself irreligious or im
moral just because. I want to
get to know different kinds
of people.
Z This girl, Nora, Is different
from any of the girls I've ever
Known. I certainly don't think
she is immoral, but she says
she wants more out of life
.than to just settle down to
an everyday routine with a
batch of kids. She wants to
be an actress and she says
riext year she is going to New
York or Hollywood.
- My mother just can't wait
for me to marry and settle
down and be like everyone
else here. I want to marry, but
I want a little experience of
-life first. My mother says this
is all because of the influence
of "that awful girl," but that's
not so.
The Council: It is easy for
i parents to blame some under-
sired attitude in their young
on any outside influence us
ually a companion. They over
look" the fact that their young
ster sought out just that com
panion from many different
possibilities and that there
were real reasons for this
choice. '
In this case, Eunice is no
child, but it seems- that her
parents regard her as much
and she is childlike in many
of her attitudes. She apparent
ly feels as much under her
mother's thumb . as she did
when she was a little girl. She
is filled with timid longings
and daydreams, but she does
not assert herself by reaching
out for something real with
which to enlarge her life. In
stead she romanticizes through
Nora and encourages the girl
in what are probably some
very idle illusions.
Nora, too, is apparently
childlike and pretty , much of
a dreamer. It is one thing for
a 13-year-old girl to talk of
being an actress and quite' a
different thing for a girl of
21. At that age Nora should
have a pretty good idea of
how she is going to get about
this difficult business. She
should be well launched in
her training and have had a
few minor jobs in the field
A girl of 21 who talks of run
ning off to New York or Holly
wood and just becoming an ac
tress is a menace to nobody so
much as herself. Eunice is
probably the harmful influ
ence by encouraging her in
these fantasies.
The J. F.'s ought to try to
get over some of theUr fears
about what the big outside
world might do to harm their
little girl, but Eunice should
try to help the process by
doing some growing up. She
