Why Landlords Won’t Rent to People With ‘lhildren - Shall Brother-in-Law Help .. Support Another Man’s Family?- Does a Kiss Indicate Love? - ‘*-

Dear Miss Dix-Landlords are the most unpatriotlc citizens of America. Why? Because they do not want to rent to people with children. Who ivill be the ones to ﬂsht thr. next War. '11“? b0)! 0f

today. Who will be the nurses and fill the men's places while they ﬁght? The girls of today. When the crabbed old people die off, who will run our count/ry? The girls and boys of today. Who will rim our factories and our banks and stores and sail our ships and fly our planes in the future? The laughing, romping boys and girls of today. and yet nobody wants to rent us a house in which to rear tlicse youngsters. I tell you we mothers certainly have the heartache‘ for our children. MRS.

_ Answer: ‘

\\ l, . C. C“ if you mothers had less heartache for your children and more uoqtl right arm in dealing with them, you would not ﬁnd that lniitllords objected to renting houses to people with laughing, romping boys and lliris.

It is all vrry well to deplore the lack of patriotism of the man who refuses to provide shelter, even for money, to our futuie citizens, but ivliat brand of jiairiotism has the mother who is bringing up a set oi’ liziii- v Klillh who literally tea: down any house they live in if it happens in lit a iitrd house? For it is observable that evcn a small boy has iiiru- "LBHWIL for property if it belongs to his parents, and docs not chuck pcbb w through papas windows, nor carve his initials on mother's stair rail Willi the iilllll.‘ joyous abandon that he displays in dealing with other peoples iYllltlOiVi and stair rails.

io jicupie with children it is because experience has shown them

that ii ‘nonse in ncvcr the same after a family of children have lived in it.

{Hid ihai the damage they commit is more than the rent comes to. And

tliiu should give parents a jolt that should make them pause and think,

riid Clllbliltl‘ ivliat they iiic doing in roaring a family of children who

have liven taught no regard for the rights or property of others, none of (lie ethics of civilized society.

Perhaps it is because it is easier to lct children grow up into being hoodluins tliaii it is lu tciicii them to be ladies and gentlemen and moth- ers take the line of least resistance. Perhaps it is because many moth- crs arc too lazy and inert to light with self-willed youngsters, and they are too bury going to Lrirlge games and matinees to keep up with what their children are iloing. Perhaps it is because so many mothers are so soft and so obstsseil by their adoration of their youngsters that they think that everybody else in the world should consider it a privilege to be sacriﬁced to them.

But. at any rate, we all know innumerable children whose parents do not make the siliglitcst efforts to control them, or to teach them any of the dccencics oi‘ living, and who are little savages who- terrorize the neighborhoods in which they live, and whose presence in a. community dcprcciatcs property more than a pest house would.

I have sccn a child of this caliber deliberately empty a glass of milk on a valuable Persian rug and instead of turning him across her knee and giving him a spanking that he would remember; the balance o: his life, the mother cried rapturously: “Oh see how strong Johnny is getting, and, how he can use his hands!"

I have had another such little demon best antique table and the latuous mother was only sure that it; indicated that littic Sammy was going to be an artist. I have had another one tear up a priceless autographed book and the mother was pleased because she tflaought. it indicated that little Sally was going to be literary, because she always crlcd for books and literally ate them up.

Answer: , I don't think any situation in the world is more compllﬁﬂted. 01‘ T195

more angles than the one in which y ou ﬁnd yourself. Your side of the situation is that you would like to help your sister and. would be willing to make sacriﬁces to do so. You would be willing to live in a cheaper house in a simpler way in order that she might have a. better one. You would buy a plalner dress so that you might give he‘: one like it. - . If you were a business woman, earning money, you would divide it with her, and you feel that inasmuch as you work hard-keeping house as you would in a. store or office, that you are entitled to money that. you earn by your own labor, and that you should have a. right to give this to your sister if you choose. That is true and you are right from that point of view.

But, on the other hand, when your husband married you he didn't merry your family. He undertook your support and not that of your sister and her children. Furthermore, for you to live in the style that you do. and for you to dress well and make a good appearance is a distinct busi- ness asset to him, and you would be doing him an injustice if you went shabby ln order to give the money to your family. So you: husband is right from his point of view.

Furthermore, unless your sister ls in absolute need, for her to depend on you: husband to support her and her children would weaken their morale and make them parasites, and probably cause her husband to quit making any effort at all to provide for his family. Nothing is easier to acquire than the habit of dependence and nothing is so demoralizing. Probably poverty and the desire for things they want and haven't got will turn your sister's children into go-getters, and in the end they may have more money than yours. I have seen poor relatives become rich relations many and many a. time. - '

So the question of how much a brother-ln-law should do for a sister- in-law becomes solely one ofgcncroslty when they are not in real need, but when the wolf howls at the door it is his duty then to feed them.
