(lips lo The Ladies) •
Dear Sadie,
1 know that your eoliinin is stated "Tips to the
Ladies ' but sometime men have problems also. 1 am i
voung man of twenty three years of age and here is mv
problem. I have a two year old son bv a girl and I have
H' give him support through the court system ever> two
weeks. I his girl also receives a check from welfare aiul
tood stamps and also medical stickers. With all this she
stioll does not take care of my son. He is alw ays dirts,
hair not combed, and I feel that she is not doing her job
as a mother. Whenever I say something to her about
this situation or ask for my child, I am (mlv cursed. I liis
makes me feel like not giving another dime to this gir.
What should I do?
BRM
Dear. BRM:
I know that it is hard for you to give support to your
child and then see that he is not taken care of properly.
1 suggest that you do not stop your support pavments
since it would mean your arrest for non-support. You
need to talk to the girl's social worker and request that
it you are supporting your child and the girl is also
receiving a check lrt>m St>cia! Services each month that
your child be properly cared for or taken from the girl if
she is tound to be an unfit mother. A man also has a
right to take a girl to court as being an unfit mother just
as a girl has a right to demand support for a child. The
main thing is for the child not to have to suffer.
Sadie
P.S. I hanks for your question. It w as nice to hear
from a young man and I welcome questions from any
sex,

Dear Sir:
I write to commend you
and your writers on certain
articles in your paper, I'HE
IKIBUNAL AID.
First, I’d like lo say that
your articles on Black
History show and tell
things that many encyclop
edias or books on slavery or
Black history may not or do
not tell.
Your article on "Black
Codes” (Wed. 1/28/76)
points out things that
slaves were restricted to.
This also shows how
Blacks, or Negro Ameri
cans, have advanced in
freedom, employment,
speech, and into being a
part of the country in which
thev were born.

I also think it’s nice for a
Black newspaper lo have a
person like Doris B.
Kwasikpui (Ask Me About
Nature column) to answer
questions or give advice to
persons who write in
questions concerning na
ture. 1 also like "Sadie’s
Corner."
Adding to what I’ve
already said, I admire the
way that this newspaper
points out Negro artists,
athletes, and high-ranking
policemen.
There is nothing in the
paper I dislike.
Yours sincerely.
