Record May Be Revised

Dear Mary llaworth: Twenty- one years ago I had a son born out of wedlock. My son's father couldn't marry me at the time because of the position he held.

Two years later we were mar- ried and since have raised a fine family of several children. My son's birth certificate still carries my maiden name. I have never had it changed be- cause of the damage it might do to our reputation in the c om- munity. We are a respected family.

Now my son will soon need a birth certificate for a job he wants. Is there any way we ,can get it changed to show that lwe are his real parents?--H.L.

In that spirit you c a 1: face with dignity any discom- fort the effort may cost y on. And remember: you owe no explanation or apology to busy- body critics. as rgards past his- ry.

Dear Mary Haworth: How old do you think a girl should be before she can date? I am 14 and in the ninth grade at school.

My mother thinks because I am her youngest that I am not old enough to date; and I would like your opinion.

Another question: Am I too big for my age? I am five feet. six- and-a-half inches tall; weig 122 pounds, and my measure- ments are 33 - 25‘/z - 35. Thank you very much. -—R.C.

Dear R.C.: Judging by your specifications, you are tall and willowy, with a figure that sug- gests a slightly older girl.

But I wouldn't say you are too big for your age. Rather I would suppose that you are simply a nice looking teen-ager. assum- ing you have good posture, and good taste in clothes.

As for the right age to start dating, isn't that like asking at what age to marry? There is no fixed rule. It is an individual matter and circumstances altei

Given reasonable parents (Le. parents who are considerate, helpful and sensible as the us- ual thing), a teen-age girl should cooperate with their guidance. I think.

view that early teen age dating is a pathetic malpractice. It nips childhood in the bud; makes boys and girls into wizened imi- tations of young men and wom- en. They are suddenly oldish before their time, like frostbit- ten apples.
