I am a single girl of 24. Two years ago 1 left home and came to the city to get a job and be on my own. I am doing well and live with a very nice family. The reason I left home is that my parents, especially my mother, are impossible to get along with. They just don't recognize the 20th century. They think a young girl must be watched and criticized at every step. They gave me no freedom, opened my 'mail, listened in on my telephone conversations, waited up for me whenever I went out. Now they are doing the same thing to my kid sister. She is going on 18 and I am trying to convince her to come live with me as soon as she gets out of high school. Un fortunately, she doesn't have the guts. Our parents will ruin her life if she doesn't get away. . Mary M. It's true that. I have no guts. I'm considered very shy and when I visit Eileen in the city I get almost sick seeing all those people hurrying around. She showed me her office and I just know if I worked in a place like that I would never talk to anyone. I'm all right with peo ple I know, but I get so nerv ous with - strangers. ' I guess our parents are pretty hard to get along with, but I seem to get around them a little better than Eileen does. Anyway, I've managed to get them to leave my mail alone and let me have some privacy at the telephone., . when I visit Eileen she keeps bothering me about how to dress and act and which people to try to "make out" with,, etc. I get even more shy and nervous and I'm glad to get home again to be . with my parents and old friends. ..;..;.,-.o" . The Council: From these accounts, we suggest that Ei leen is quite a chip off the old block. Mary is wise to be aware of the fact that the "freedom" Eileen holds out to her comes to little more than a change of tyrants. Since Eileen knows the un- happiness domineering indi viduals can cause their vic tims, she should try to spot and curb this tendency in her self. Her interest in her sister and her offer to be of help are sufficient. It is not her business to "rescue" a sister who doesn't want to be rescu ed from the arms of cruel parents. Individuals like Eileen of ten feel quite weak deep with in themselves. They put on a bold front and may go far in establishing their independ ence. But they are still un certain of themselves and want : to dominate someone weaker as added assurance of their powers. On the other hand, Mary sees herself as a timid, fright ened person, but has actually proven herself quite strong and competent. She has man aged to make some changes in her strongly domineering parents and she shrewdly avoids placing herself in a dependent position in relation to her sister. She shows every sign of being able to cope with her problems. She should worry less about her shyness and her fear of large numbers of strange people. Social ag gressiveness ' : isn't . the only worthwhile characteristic. There is plenty of room in the world for reserved in dividuals. Mary may gain so cial poise if she is allowed to grow in her own way at her own rate. ; The taunt of "no guts" is nonsense; Each of us has a personal battle and a per sonal way of fighting it. We can't set the terms of the battle and the weapons to be used for someone else. (Copyright 1959. - General Features Corp.) News About Servicemen COMPLETE TRAINING Marine Pvt. Kenneth A.
