Fathers and Mothers Wise to Keep Their Hands Off Their (`hildren’s Marriages and Let Them do Own Picking, Since Happi- ness in Marriage is Purely a Matter of Getting Person That Suits You

The other Llav the iirwsimpers told the pathetic .story of it young girl

ably begaii when Cain and Abel first cast amorous

_ eyes at sonic cutie, about how far parents should in

` " tei'fei'c in thc mai'ri;ir,e,s ol' their children. It is a t. _ problein that has been clebatetl, and is still being

' :ought over in millions and millions of homes.

W. .\,,.\.v .

` A; `» _-.

Barrels of tears have been sliccl over it. Hearts ` ‘ ' ' liaie broken over it. Chilclren and parents have been ,.*'¢,~' pa;-ted by it. Life-long bittrrncsscs have been en-

;.:<‘iitlci'ed by it. Yet no one has ever been able to ~. V-ii# 51.5%?

, _ solve ic. Probably because both sides are so right

\ ig, and so \\'i'ong.

The pai’eni.=. eoiileiitl, and with reason ~a> that their nge and experi-

ence and kiio\.\'leri;:e of nieii and woiiicii should enable them to make wiser

selectioiis of lift-iiiates for their chiltlrcn than the children, in their youth and i,L’Iioraiit'e. are able to make for thciiisclvcs: lbi that they would not be eairiecl away b_v their ciiiotions as their cliiltlreii are, and that they would ‘ select a girl as a ivife tor her sterling vvorth and not because of the way her hair eiirls aronntl lier cans, and that they would pick out ri boy for a hus- ‘Janrl hecatise lic was a go-gutter and a inode] ol all thc virtues and not bc- cuizse he had a keen line and was :.1 peachy dancer.

‘ l"in'tlicrinore the pnrciits depone tc) that inasmuch as tlicy have the i

bag to hold if tlic`iiiai‘rir.ge turns out badly, that they have a right to some say-So about what goes in it. For it is father and mother who have to Loot the bill when their daughters quarrel with their liiisbaiids atid come hoinc uitli ai divorce decree in one hand and a pack of children to be edu- cated and supported in the other. ‘

On the other liand, the youngsters contend. and no one can dispute

them ist tliil. iivztlier agc nor cxperieiicc qualifies any human being to be i inatriznoinni expt rt: fb) that mother and father are not always good pick- ers, and that as many sure things go bloocy in matrimony ns do on Wall. Street; 'cl that what makes a good husband or a good wife is purely a niatter o`. personal taste; ldt that as they have to live with the ones to \\‘liom they are united in the holy bonds of niatriniony it is iiioieiiiiiiartalit that they shoutzl be pleased than that their parents should.

SO _von sec there is plenty of groniid for arguinent pro and con. but for

my part l .side with the ehilclrcn_ and l think parents should be very sure of the reason for their objections before they interfere in their chilclrcn`s heart affairs. Their selfisliiiess, their avarice_ their whims, their prejudices. their religious intoierance is not sufficient cause for their either breaking oil' or promoting a marriage.

'let we see this :lone every day. All cf us know half 9. dozen lonely

old l!m"is and baelielor.~; who were kept from marrying in their youth by their pii'rmi.*~ iiist because the parents dicl not wish to give them up. There are plenty of fathers who cirivc away potential siiitors from their daughters

by their giwiffincss. There are plenty of mothers who keep their dangliters l from marryiiig by clevelopiiig nerves or bad hearts, or by bursting into tears every time any prospcctlvc lover dawns on the scene.

'luxurious feeling usually accom-

children and splendid young men and girls because they didnt' belong to the same church, or political party, or because one's mother was a Colonial Dame and the other wasnt. `

1 have in mind one mother who kept her daughter from marrying a

" fine young man because she didn't like the shape of his nose. I think of a ,young man whose mother wept and threatened to kill herself until be gave up a girl he adored, because the mother thought the girl frivolous whenl she was merely gay and young and light-hearted. And I remember onel embittered woman whose family forced her to break her engagement to a ' brilliaiit young chap because he belonged to a. less aristocratic family than she did, _vet she lived to see this man Governor of his State and Senator,

I anti to have his wife roll by her in a limousine, while she ,walked to work.

" Nor :Io parents invariably know best when they pick out their child-

I rcn's liiisbands and ivives. How often have we seen ii girl forced to give ; up her poor. yoiini; lover and marry the fat. middle-aged good chance that 5 her parents chose for her, and then behold the good chance bankrupt and I the poor lover successful. How often have we seen the sensible girl, wltp _it iiicc fortune of her own, that mother selected for her son, turn into a

,ilnillstniie about his neck and a naggei' that made his life a torment to him.

" ‘ l!l`ll. , . I I

l

The truth is that marriage is the most individual and personal thing on

arth and the one thing in which none of us can judge for `anotlier. Happi- ness in marriage is merely a matter of taste, getting the one* that suits you iiidiridualiy. and very often that one isn't the one who would suit mother or i father.

i So, this being the case, fathers and mothers are wise to keep their hand off their childrcn's niarrizigcs. and let them dr their own picking.
