DEAR SICK: If you can write, you can read. And if you
can read, you can learn. Read your newspaper and keep up
with the current events. That's a beginning. And don't be
afraid to speak up.
If Peter were “ashamed" of you, he wouldn't introduce
you to his friends. Even with your limited education, you
are probably a lot brighter than you think you are. Look
into taking some classes in adult education. It will do
wonders for your confidence.

DEAR ABBY: I am 23 and Peter, the man I’m engaged
to, is 32.1 love him very much and he says he loves me, and
I guess he does, but I don’t know why. -
Peter is an engineer and he's had a very good education.
.I never went beyond the seventh grade. When we are with
his friends, I'm always afraid I’ll say the wrong thing, then
everybody-will know how dumb I am and Peter will be
ashamed of me. ,
He says.I am fine and I shouldn’t worry about what to
say, but by the end of the evening I’m so nervous and tied
up in knots that I’m trembling. How can I get over this
feeling? Folks tell me I’m'pretty, but that’s not enough.
Can you help me?

DEAR THREE: Yes. Tell your husband that it's time for
“Dad” to divide his time among the other children. You are
not selfish; it’s a matter of survival. And if your husband la
the “sweet guy" you say he is, he’ll see it your way.
DEAR ABBY: Am I wrong for objecting to the following
idea? My daughter-in-law wants to give a baby shower for
her niece, who has been living in Alaska for two years.
This niece is 14-yars-old and is not married.
My daughter-in-law says her niece's school chums OWE
her that. She says nobody has to know that the girl is not
married.
Maybe I'm old-fashioned but it lookslike greed to me,
and I can't see where anybody “owes” this kid anything.
I realize this girl is in a tough spot, but I just don't feel
like going along with this kind of shower.
If you say I’m wrong, I’ll send something for the baby.

DEAR ABBY: One year after Roy and I were married, -
his father, a 68-year-old widower, came to visit us for "a
few months."That was three years ago, and he's still here.
He’s a nice enough person, but Roy and I have no
privacy in this one-bedroom apartment. Dad sleeps on a
sofa bed in the living room and comes with us wherever we
go. I’m 30 now and Roy is 32, and we want a baby, but until
his father leaves it’s out of the question.
Dad has three other children (all married) who have
invited him to live with them, but he prefers living with us
because we live in California and the others live in New
Jersey. He’s in good health for his age, but all he does is
eat, sleep, read and watch daytime TV. (We can’t watch
TV after 10 p.m. so he can sleep.)
Forget about letting Dad live alone. His family wouldn’t
hear of it.
I hate to complain to Roy because he’s such a sweet guy
and thinks it’s his moral obligation to look after his father.
But I just want to be alone with my husband, Abby. Am I
being selfish? Our marriage is beginning to suffer from this ■
arrangement? Is there a solution?
