Stephen J. - I warned her not to come to me if she got married. Cora J. - My husband and I are having a serious disagree ment about our 18 -year -old daughter, who was married last year against our wishes. Miriam's husband is only 19 and they are expecting a baby in a few months. They need money desperately and we can afford to give it to them. But my husband warned Miriam before she married that if she eloped with this boy she couldn't look to him for help. The children now live in a misesable apartment and Miriam is wearing hand-me-down maternity clothes. Her husband is so badly dressed that I'm ashamed to have them visit us. I feel so sorry for them it really breaks my heart. I certainly can't enjoy life when I know my daughter is suffering. Stephen J. - I realize this may be hurting us even more than it does them, but I think it's the right thing to do. I have always been a man who stands by his word. When I told Miriam she ,,!Hn't inoir to me for help, she said she would sooner go begging. I think sne ana n--' husband should learn that words and actions have con sequences. You can't just go through life doing exactly what you please and get oft the hook every time the chips are down. Aside from that, it seems to me that it's the place of my son-in-law's parents to make some overtures of help. They are no worse off than we are and they didn't do very much to discourage the marriage. I always had the feeling t -y believed we'd come through with help. The Council: It is always a mistake to make rash threats or promises before a marriage. If the parents do not approve, it is enough to tell the young couple so in no uncertain terms. It is also wise to warn them that the financial and emotional responsib i 1 i 1 1 e s they are about to undertake are by no means small. If this kind of persuasion doesn t take, it is unlikely that threats or promises will work any better. Indeed, threats often harden the young person in his resolve to go his own way. Once the threat has been made, however, the moral is sue may become silly as well as complicated. If Stephen feels that keeping his word is more important than allevi ating the suffering of a young family, he must accept the consequences of such a posi tion. He undoubtedly feels pained, guilty and somewhat foolish - feelings that will grow as time goes on. Stephen also shows an ill natured attitude toward his son-in-law's family. He cer tainly has no cause to take ex ception to their conduct when it is no different from his own. If both sets of parents are feuding at the expense of the young couple, this is indeed a sorry situation. If the decision is finally made to help the young fam ily, it should be done in such a way as to enable them to keep self-respect and to avoid undermining the young man's initiative. It should be under stood the subsidy is an emer gency measure to help them get on their own feet. (Copyright 1959, General Features Corp.) RAIN BECOMING FAIR Knoxville, Tenn.-dTD-R. H.
