Louis J.-Vhen I try to do something about It, she turns chicken. e e e Sally J.-I am 23 nnd have been married five years. I feel trapped and terribly frightened. We have a 4-year-old son. I had planned to put him in nursery school this year and find myself a job. Now I find we are to have another baby. We just can't afford this child. We can hardly get along now. We haven't yet finished our payments on our furniture and already half the things are in shambles. My husband wants to try his luck in another state, but I'm afraid we won't be any better off. The pay for his kind of work Is the same everywhere. I haven't had a new dress in two years. We never go anywhere or have any fun. e e Louis J.-A friend of mine tells me living costs are much lower in the community I want to move to. I feel if we can just cut down on ex penses we'll be able to get our feet on solid ground. Sally is always nagging and complaining, but when I want to do something about it all she turns chicken. She says she hates most of the people around here, but when I talk about leaving she says she doesn't want to go away from her friends. I, too, feel trapped. After all, I'd like some fun. I don't drink or gamble. All I ask is for the nagging and yelling to stop. e Th Council: Sally and Louis have matured little in their five years of marriage. They married as teen-agers -probably seeing their whole future as a lark. They could no longer be told what to do or not to do by their parents. They would have romance and sexual fulfillment in a so cially acceptable arrange ment. They would be respect ed as adult members of society. Now. five years later, they are still chasing this never- never land where all is fun and freedom. But this place Just doesn't exist. The marriage certifi cate isn't a gulden key lo Joy -only a contract between two individuals that they will be loyal to one another down life's stony path. It they find happiness along the way, It Is simply because tliey love one another's company and have learned to make light of hard ships and appreciate the many good things that may be found by the Individual who knows how to seek them out. Louis now wants to escape to another community in the same way he sought escape into marriage. The never never land beckons with its lower cost ot living. Yet Louis is surely aware that the expense of relocation Is likely to offset the trifling difference In living costs. It seems to us that the "trap" Sallv and Louis refer to is the ordinary one of day-to-day reality. They are no more trapped than thousands of other young couples. With marriage comes children, re sponsibilities and the difficul ties of living with another person. With each of these things, there Is also great Joy for mature Individuals who don't expect life to be one long movie dream In color. We can only recommend that Sally and Louis step out i of the trap of their own child ishness and get together to work out a plan for squeezing more enjoyment out of their daily lives. They should be aware that more money would never, in Itself, solve their problems. (Copyright 1960. General Feature! Corp.)
