SELFISH Morrneiiiarraits Boy

World Full of Lonely Bachelors, Spinoters Victims of Heavy Demands on Filial Duty

I have a letter from a woman whose husband died when their only child was five yea-n old. The husband left no estate and the mother bravely went to work to support the little lad. During all the "weary years in which the boy was growing up she solaced herself with a dream. It was that when he was it man that they would establish a home to- gether and that she would keep house for him and they would live “ ppily ever afterwards. ’ I-Ie was never to love any woman but her.

never to marry. ,

The boy had his dream, too, which was to make life easy for his mother. and as soon at he began to earn money he made her Castle in Spain turn into a reality and ahe was blissfully happy for l. year or two. Then Fate dealt her what she regards as its cruelest blow. Her son fell in love with a girl and married her.

Now the mother is the most miserable of wo- men becauae she feels that her son has betrayed her.

“I gave up everything for him," she moans. "and he would not izlve up ii silly, little, fluffy- headed girl for me." -

Bhe harps upon the debt he owes her and will

not see that she is a female Shvlock who ls demanding to be paid with the pound of flesh nearest his heart. For what is life to the man who is forced to forego all thoughts of love and all hope of a wife and children? .

t WORLD FULL OI‘ LONELY BACIIELORS I

This mother is not alone in her insistence that her son should givea- up thirty or forty years of his life to her because she gave up ten or l fifteen years of her life to him. The world is full of lonely old bachelors y and old maids who have let selfish mothers drive such unequal bargains l with them in the name of filial duty. t ‘

It is sadly true that many parents run a sentimental debt account .‘ with their children which they are continually presenting for payment. l They are hard and ruthless collectors. Because Mother took care of' them when they were babies she often demands that her sons‘ and daughters devote their whole lives to cuddling her.

Because she stayed at home with her youngsters she feels that they are in duty bound to be lettered to her chair for life, and that they have no right to marry or leave her to go where fortune calls them. And if they balk at paying so high a price for being reared, she backs up her bill with tears and gets it with compound interest.

I am not arguing that children do not owe anything to their par- ents. Far from it. If they have had good and kind and tender fathers and mothers, they owe them love and respect and appreciation and every consideration. They owe them support, if they are poor. They owe them companionship and little attentions so they may not feel themselves neglected. 'But they do not owe them the sacrifice of their whole lives.

Parents should not be usurers. They should not ask of their chil- dren more than they have given them.
