Mrs. H. S. - Our children
act as though they're ashamed
Of 116.
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-

ties and other ventures be
come "en masse" expeditions.
No one did anything individ
ually. They moved as a family.
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

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. Colonel
Glenn's wero referred to
similarly by President Ken
nedy at the teople who
launched the Astronaut.
