Mra. F. W. - Because of
slight blemish she won't go
anvwhere.
Rima W. - Why parade
these ugly blotches? I ll go to
a doclor, but nowhere else.
e
Mri. r. w. - When I re
ceived a notice from the
P.T.A. that the students were
going to offer a debate on
nuclear testing at the next
meeting, I was sure Rima
would be one of the partici
pants. She's the current
events reporter on the high
school paper and has written
a scries of articles on the Ge
neva Conference and other
talks about the topic.
But It's the same old story
She has a faint "strawberry
mark" on her cheek and she
thinks nobody looks at any
other part of her but that.
As a child Bhe dldn t mind it
We called It "an angel's kiss."
When she grew self-conscious
about it, I bought her a cos
metic that masks it. She's
been mixing a little more late
ly, so I thought the problem
was solved. But now she's
again backing down from
group activities. She's an at
tractive girl and she's letting
her imagination make too
much of a slight imperfection.
Rima W. - My mother Is
plain blind. Maybe all fond
parents are. I'm 18 years old
and in a high school where
how 'you look is more Impor
tant than what you know,
how you feel, how you act or
anything else. And what my
mother calls a slight imper
fection, well - look at It. It's
the map of Australia spread
across my face. That goo she
bought me just makes it all
the more conspicuous.
Even though my folks think
it's nothing and I should for
get about it, it's on my mind
constantly. I want to go to a
skin specialist about it. But
years ago some doctor told
my mother It would get light
er and fade, so the won't lis
ten to anyone else. It's no
lighter, it spoils my appear
ance, and if I can't get rid of
it I certainly won't walk
around displaying It.
' That's why I backed out of
the debate in school. I II be
In the audience.
e e
The Councili Fond parents
aren't blind, Rima. It's the
"non-fonds" who are. The
fond ones sees a teen-ager's
pain and try to assuage it In
practical, common - sense
ways. We think your mother
has done this. But we also
think she's ready to try a
more serious approach in
view of your prowlng distress
and unnatural aloofness.
Fondness fits the moves to
the calls.
Parents of any teen-ager
suffer not only from him, but
for him and with him. Much
of our suffering comes from
the hands-off frustration of
not being able to do anything
to help him. So much of the
help must come from Inside
himself, from his readiness
and receptivity. But on one
type of worry-the teen-ager's
appearance, his health and
grooming - a parent may
safely enlist outside aid and
then help the youngster fol
low through.
Rima's obsession about her
faciul birthmark needs two
types of attention, dermatolo
gical and psychological. But
since more and more special
ists these days are psychl
atrlcally oriented - that is,
aware of the psychological
factors operating in the con
ditions they treat - a visit to
one good skin man may suf
fice. That "map" Rima de
scribes is called a "capillary
hemangioma" and we read of
miraculous results in remov
ing such blemishes by tatoo
ing. Teen-agers are reported
so Improved that they plunge
Into school and social activi
ties after one or two treat
ments. The point we make is
that Rima's anguish can prob
ably be eased on the phvsical
front, and we urge Mrs. W. to
get busy In that direction.
As to the emotloiiHl restor
ation necessary for Rima's
participation In teen age tan
gents, we think it's a do it
herself possibility. Once her
outer appearance is more con
trollable, she can summon her
Inner beauty, her zest, insight
and interests to complete her
attractiveness.
