Rosalie S. F. - How can we Include them in every move we make? Mrs. H. S. - We have two married children, a son and a daughter. Now that they're solidly established in beauti ful homes on Long Island, now that they've prospered and grown wealthy, they pay very Jittle attention to us, the parents who made it all pos sible. And when they're hav ing particularly fancy parlies they warn us clearly not to turn up there that week end. We're Riven to feel it would ruin them socially to have their friends meet their par ents. I blame most of this on my son's wife. She was a poor girl and now she can't resist her chance to put on the dog. Since my daughter and her husband live next door, they follow suit and we're left out of the picture. The worst part oi lliis snobbery is that our grandchildren are deprived of seeing us, since they're too young to travel into town alone to our apartment. But the few times we can join them always prove mutually delightful. Rosalie S. F. - I'm speaking in behalf of my brother and myself, and our respective spouses. We're not the terrible four my mother makes us out to be. Our parents had a precon ceived notion about what would happen when their chil dren grew up. They expected us to continue in the pattern they had followed with their parents, where everybody lived together or practically next door, where visits, par- SERVICE MEATS I 2030 W.

They refuse to concede that things have changed. Why can't we just be good friends': Who do they insist that we're ashamed of them, just because we want some private, inde pendent life among our con temporaries? Granted they gave us a good start. That's all the more reason to allow us to move along freely. Are they trying to tie apron strings around us again at this late date? The Council: Since The Council can remember 'way back when,' we recall a tear- jerker song which used to be played by the pianist during the sad part of a silent movie. It was entitled, "If we can't be the same old sweethearts, then we'll just be the same old friends." The difference presented here between the S 's and their children calls for some such compromise. Peace and cood feelina mav i urn Kr1 umcn iha oonpra. II tions when a few old-fashion-ed words are redefined in the light of their present meaning. Take friendship, for instance. If Mrs. S. desires the friend ship of her children, we're sure she has it and can have more of it, as she becomes less critical and sulky. But if she's equating being a friend with bcinfi a bosom-buddy-pal to her son and daughter, 'she's overreaching. Not even a par ent can be all things to all men! Take another word, duty. Certainly it's Rosalie's duty to tender her parents the re spect due them for being 1 earnest, conscientious guides and protectors. But it is not her duty to jump at every summons whenever (and it seems to be frequent, if not daily) her parents get a yen to sec her. May we suggest that Rosalie and her brother invite their parents to visit their homes regularly, unless there's a real reason not to. We concede that there may well be such reasons. Sometimes the mere presence of a "maverick" in a homogenous circle may cramp someone's style, slow the fun and inhibit the con versation. Even though the older folks may actually fit in intellectually, there's a ten dency to defer to them, to ex plain comments, and treat them as outsiders, when the others are young - marrieds. (Aside to Mrs. H.: Honestly, you don't miss much by not being at some of your chil dren's social events. Have few of vour own. whv don't you?) As parents grow older. Rosalie, they add luster to family gatherings. Your friends may enjoy seeing them as your prize family heir looms,' treated with love and tenderness. And your children will profit from your example of filial appreciation Your parents are your origins and fascinating as surh.
