..Carole = By "Carole w. Ricks Your Daughter Has Right —To Choose Qodbes Sie Wears Dear Carole: . Our daughter, age 18, has started jogging to keep in shape. You wouldn’t think that jogging is a problem. But it is right now for us. You see, we don’t approve of the outfit she wears. We think she has too much skin hanging out. She says that she has to wear some _thing short and loose so she can run freely. She also says that we have no right to tell her what to wear since she is now 18. Which of us do you think is right? “Loving Parents” Dear Loving Parents: Both of you. As an 18 year old adult, your daughter does have the right to choose the clothes she wears. She must decide how she wants to look.'Her appear ance must be acceptable to her. Your concern, though, as loving parents is understandable, too. There are jogging outfits which are somewhat modest. Maybe you can gently suggest that she try an outfit a size larger or one that is less revealing in style. However, although your opinion may be expressed to her, she does not have to make deci sions based on your approval. One of the many challenges of being a parent is learning to live with the decisions and choices that children will make; especially as they reach adult hood. Carole Dear Carole: My husband is a very good looking man. That doesn’t really bother me because I’m a very good looking woman. The pro blem is that many women flirt with him. Now, I have talked to him about this. But he says he doesn’t think they are flirt _ing. I think he’s too blind to be able to tell if they are. I also think that he likes the atten tion and doesn’t want me to know it. I don’t understand him. Be cause I give him all the at tention he needs. My thought is that a wp '.an can tell when another woman is flirting easier than a man can tell. I don’t think that my husband is as dumb as _he’s acting. How can I get him to see that these women are flirting with him? How can I • make them stop? r™ ej. Dear E. J.: Although you stated that you aren’t bothered by your hus band’s good looks, it sounds as though you are. If your hus band is good looking, then some one else will notice that he isr too. If you could feel more secure in your relationship with him, your concerns would be less. Neither you nor he has control over how other people look at him. How ever, he has control over how he reacts to those looks. And you have control over how you in terpret Those lodes. If you feel that you are giving your hus band the attention he needs, then you have little to worry about. But, be sure that he gives you the attention that is also important to you. caroie Editor’s Note: Carole B.
