DEAR ABBY

|

_ By Abigail Van Buren

1979 by Chicago Tribunen.¥. News Synd. inc.

DEAR ABBY: You printed a letler from UPSET IN
BALTIMORE whose 28-year-old son was in love with a
62-year-old woman, Resides telling the mother to stay oul of
her son's lave life, you should have informed her thal this

asinine prejudice against older women is an American

cultural hangup. .

Winston Churchill's mother is said to have been alluring to
young men when she was in her 6s, In fact, she married a
man younger than her son.

SENSIBLE IN GA.

DEAR SENSIBLE; The younger man-old woman com-
bination has had some notable successes. Ank Gloria Swan-
son, Merle Oberon, Ruth Gordon, Mary Pickford, Sybil Bur-
ton, Lucille Ball, Cher’s mother and Gloria Steinem.

DEAR ABBY: 1 am a 12-year-old girl and I'm being forced
against my will to go to summer camp again went last year
and hated it. .

My folks keep telling me how lucky I am that they. ean af-
ford to send me, but I don’t feel lucky. I feel like a girl whose
parents want ta gel rid of her for lwo months.

My mother says if I don’t go to camp | will have to sit on
the porch all summer. What should I do?

‘ HATES CAMP

DEAR HATES: Go, dear. But firet get rid of that
negative attitude. Mout people have about as good a time as
they make up their minds to have.

DEAR ABBY: My husband dresses up ip a shirl and. tie
and vested suil for work every day, He really looks sharp.
Bul the minute he cames home he changes into ragged jeans
and a dirly T-shirt. Thea he comes to the dinner lable in
those grubby cluthes.- Lo

Tonce asked him if he couldn't be a little more presentable
for dinner, and be sald: “What for? Nobody's here." (We
have two teen-age children)

Yesterday 1 again said something aboul.the way he looked
at the dinner table, and one of the kids said, “Don't hassle
him, Mom. He has a right to wear what he wants.”

Who is right? .
LEXINGTON LADY

DEAR LADY: Not you, Mom. Your husband has the right
to be comfortable at home, but why muat he wear ragged
Jeans and a dirly T-shirt? They make some sharp locking
jeans and T-shirts, Surprise your man with some good-
looking leisure clothes for Father's Day and you'll all be
happier, (P.S. And when he's in a good mood, inform him
that you and the children are “aomebody.”)

CONFIDENTIAL TO “FAITHFUL READER IN
WOBURN, MASS" From. your letter I would auggest that

you go into selling. (The difference between rape and

romance is sometimes salegmanship.) ‘

Getting married? Whether you want a formal church
wedding or a simple do-yoqur-own-thing ceremony, get
