She only spends tha niilm Wml us when she says she wants to. which is very seldom; and my parents won't make her stay with us. Don't you think she should be made to live with us, whether she says so or not? She calls us mama and daddy and addresses my par- ents as it do--as mom and dad. She is rather spoiled, as you may gather-being a granddaughter. I have a younger sister at home. age 10; also several brothers all past 21.
My husband. who is much. older than 1. isn't exactly the kind of husband I thought he would be- which probably has a bearing on the situation. I can't talk to him about important matters. Also he stays out nights, and sometimes I wonder if It isn't best to let Mimi stay with my parents-as I feel at times that I would like to get away from it all. Or should I try to raise Mimi with her brother and sister. and make the best of whatever happens?

Dear B..l.: You don't mention the nature of Miniiis illness that de- veloped whcn she came back to you at the age of 13 months. But as the doctor advised a change of climate for her. I surmise she was having a respiratory difficulty.- maybe an the order of asthma or bronchitis.
And as this condition (especially in children! is apt to be psychoso- matic in origin. fostered by iin conscious at-ute anxieties--that dis- turb the nervous system which gov- erns the body's instinctive func- tions--I would further guess that she was an unwelconic responsibil ity to you at the time. And had been from the first. before you left her with your mother. so that you might lcarn typing.
I would infer that her illness. at 13 months. was a sick reaction to the sudden shin fruiu the sunny atmosphere of her doting grand- mother's care. back to the compar- ative gloom and chill. of your down- hearted and uncertain brand of mothering. In short, I gather that

Let's be rcasoiiable about this business of weight ri-during. There is no blinking the fact that you'll hvae moments of discoiiragcment. of wondering whether the tussle to train an undisciplined appetite is worth the struggle. Sometimes your rnthisiasm flags simply because you've forgotten many of the pleas- ures of being ideal weight. . . . the joy of feeling light on your feet and full of a surging vigor.
To show you how rewarding a reducing program can be, herein a wonderfully inspiring report. from a jubilant reditccr.
