Dorothy Dix ‘s Letter Box

Today’s Young Mothers Are Doir a Better Job of Rearing Children Than I id Their Own Parents, and They Sh ld be

Given Credit for it l

Dear Miss Dix-l lull fed up with rim-m; the your»! modern who‘ pushed around and generally lambasted. I l-m l- l’ ung mot-her Vi“! several children and I can testify that r and n the v rm: mot-hm I know, work themselves into 119F011! flhfllfiflm trying to raise their children, hob their husband!- keep beautiful, have m attractivi home, kocp up a social life of sorts, and so on. Believe me. the modem mother gets no help fr zn the X11066!!! grandmother. Grandmother Kits 841015113’, "w" than anybody else; is always stuffing or writwl l speech and doesn't want. the chiltim around. Th8! ‘bother’ her Why she won't H n let the child- ren call her Grandmother, and sue would WNW a fit if one of them caTcd hciflGrat ny. The 09-h"

day my youngest, asked mo: why la "- _ that we haven't. any Grandma. or Jjrandllb? All the other children at school have em." And I replied: "why. Honey. Tom is v arnndmvther and Bobo is your grandfather.‘ .ll. it. was NW5 to him. JUST A WORNOUT YOUNG MA. Answer: , Raising a child is like carrying an umbrella or mekl g a fire. The

onlookers nhvays think they could d0 it better than the o c who ls doth! it. But you an mistaken i: you think that the young m fliers of today are getting an undue amount of criticism. Most of us hlnk they an: doing a grand job; a for better one than their mothers d l. _

Rearing children seems to go in alternate cycles. One gt crntlon spoils them and the next one disciplines them. Wh chever way your parents brought you up, you take the opposite co me with your own yOHHISWIB- The mothers of yesteryear were strong for c theory that yalrmust MW!‘ say "don't- tc a. child or make it behave for tear of repressing its 680. ‘PM reaction from thnt has given us the modem mother. who pits her baby to bed without any codding and lets htm yell his head- off. She tells you that she is not. going to let her children run wild. t he way iihe was per- mitted to do, and she is going to take better care of her girls than her luolhel- evcl" took oi hcr.

The modern young tnother tries first a; ham to be a, good mother as all the gens-rations of mothers who have gone brfore her. to: there have been tnlghty iew women who haven't bccn willing u; work rind sacrifice and die. if need be. for their children. The mothir of today has this ad- y vantage: she is better taught. and can give more‘,i1ltelligent_ care of the , rearing of her children.

No children have ever had such sdentlfic care lven to their health. nor had their psychology so studied. and if we 01d rs sometimes. think that their mothers are bringing them up a, little foo much Igv the book and not enough by the heat-t, why. they are errlng on virtues side.

What my correspondent says about Gmndmothe becomiilng c; ex- tinct as the dodo is. alas. only foo true. But it in rtly the young mother's fauft that she is passing away. It k'llc the gr dmotbarly spirit not to be allowed to cuddle the baby. But the woman ho won't let her grandchildren call her "Granny" bocause it dates her es one of the sweetest relationships in life. ‘-,

Dear Dorothy Dix-I am engaged lo a boy whom ' prents cus- approve. and we are going to get married without their con n . He says that when we are married lie-will positively refuse to have yvhing to do with my family; that they have run over him enough an tum, he will never enter their house. But he will not object to them co ihg to ours. though he will never see them when they do. and that I ca go to visit them as much as_I please. I know there will always be co cntion be- tween us over this subject. and I wonder if s marriage under these con- ditions can prove successful. Should I forget, my family and think only of him? no NE. Answer: ~ ,

You can't forget your family. No matter how devoted you an to your husband. there will always be this older love o! m; mghher who. re you, the father who cherished you and the waters and brothers with wl m you grew up. They are a part of your being, so interwoven with y um that you cannot separate them from it.

Many men seem ab‘e to give up their families and simply Yblot om out of their memories. but women cannot do this. ‘They cling: to air own and are never really happy when separated from their own 1100i .

This is Wlllll» makes it so unfortunate when children marrr at: their parents’ Wlshr-s and what makes ii: so vital that fathers and mot r3 should not oppose their sons’ and daughters‘ choice o! mates unlis; is some drastic reason for doing so. Their dlsapprgvg] is like a curse the marriage and bllghts it in its very beginning,

I cannot advise‘ on to give u the m ~ obirct m him. for thiy may hnvepno googrkfryaggrtogcierbrfggtlllllflggulxl.‘ tang: ents are oftcu unreasonable and unjust and prejudiced in their opinion. ‘Phall- biased views should not be allowed m wreck the happlngsa o; two people who Pove each other.
