Elberon, N.J., Dec. 27.

Dear Ruth: I am having difficulty trying to persuade my
husband to go with me for counseling help. He says the problem
is all mine. I don't want to go into our troubles in this letter, but
I do want to know if a marriage can be helped if only one
partner tries to save it. Doesn’t it take “two to tango?”
Answer: Yes, it does take two to tango if life were nothing
more than a dance. A marriage is not always a two-sided affair
and saving a marriage is worthy of any attempt, even as a solo
beginning. Evidently there is still hope for your marriage else
you would not have written. Perhaps if you were to seek out
expert advice, if you would be able to relate your side of the
friction there might be ways of interesting your husband to
take a different view of the matter. The problem is certainly
not solely yours — but saving the marriage, if it can be saved,
seems to be your responsibility at this time.

Dear Ruth: My 13-year-old daughter thinks she is very mis-
treated because we do not permit her to “car date", as many’ of
her friends are allowed to do. What are your ideas on this sub-
ject? W hat about a curfew hour when she does go to a party
w ith a group of children her own age?
Answer: Your daughter reflects the times quite accurately.
You are not mistreating her and in time will realize this. The
trouble seems to be that we attack this problem of early dating
on an individual basis. Why don’t the mothers of your daughter's
friends meet with you and talk out this situation! If all the
parents in the circle would set up a set of rules it w ould be easy
to cope with this problem. Getting old too fast; enjoying the
fruits of maturity too soon; getting whatever one desires when
not out of the fateful teens is a tragedy to the child. I want to
commend you for your firm stand. You should explore the
possibility of the other parents and see if we can't eliminate this
bugaboo which is threatening our children — grow ing into ma-
turity ahead of their years. There are many, many more whole-
some joys for the youngsters other than “car dating." Social
guidance and social amenities are not the concern alone of either
the children or the parents — but of both.
Dear Ruth: I heard you the other day over KTRH on the
“Meet the Expert" program. Do you personally feel that you can
do any good to help people this way?" I wanted you to know,
though, that I listen to this program and was glad that you
were on it, even if I wonder how much people will really do
what you say.
Answer: Drop a pebble into a quiet pool and the ripples
spread. On the radio program I drop guidance pebbles. You
were not affected by them because the problems were not yours.
There may be other listeners who were undergoing the same kind
of problems with which I dealt and the advice may have proved
helpful. You heard the program, so it wasn't, a complete loss
despite your misgivings. Admittedly, even with good suggestion
a person must choose the time and place to help himself.
