Page 20, The Herald, Tuesday, May 1, 1977 DEAR ABBY DEAR ABBY: My husband and I live in a very respectable neighborhood and, although our children are sll] toddlers, we are deeply concerned about the rise of juvenile delinquency among youngsters from “better"’ homes. Allaround us, minors — some as young as 10 — have been convicted of violent crimes. They include armed robbery, beating up the elderly and handicapped, knifing and even rape, Abby, these kids have never known hunger, poverty or discrimination. They come from reapectable homes and have gone to the best schools. Yet more and more children from the so-called privileged class are turning, to crime and violence. Why? CONCERNED DEAR CONCERNED: Basically, it's lack of discipline. (Discipline, meaning "to teach’ — not necessarily ‘'to punish."’) For a better understanding of this growing social . problem, get the May issue of PARENTS’ magarine By Abigail Van Buren im % 1879 by Chicago Tribune.N.Y. News Synd. Ing and read Bad Kids," by Lorl N. Andrews, a Chicago lawyer. I¢ will open your eyes! , She says, “Unfortunately, only after a child has committed a violent crime are the roots of his behavior explored, A peek inside the middle-class home: will reveal a child who Ilves with two adults — but has no- real parents.” DEAR ABBY: [have a relative wha loves to play gin rummy. When HE wins he says it's 90 per cent skill and 10 per cent luck. When the other fellow wins he says it's 0 per cent luck and 10per cent skill, When he loses he always wants to play one more hand — double or nothing. I get uptight and usually lose that hand, How can I get out of going along with his double-or-nothing challenge without looking like a poor sport? HY DEAR HY: Tell him you can't afford to play for such high stakes. DEAR ABBY: I have a 14-month-old nephew whose feet turn outward when he walks. So severely, in fact, that the child walks sideways. My sister knows it and keeps talking about asking her pediatrician to put the child in corrective shoes, But that’s as far as it goes. I've mentioned this to her several times. 1 don't want to bring it up again for fear she'l think I'm putting my nose where it doesn't belong. Please don't say that if my sister wants her child to grow up with turned-out feet, it’s her business, because it isn't my sister who will have to stumble through life on deformed feet. I see her pediatrician quite often. Would it be unethical of me to say something to him about it?
