Dear Ann Landers: I am
13 years old and read your
column every day. My mom
is in training to counsel peo-
ple who have alcohol pro-
blems. She clips letters out
of your column all the time
because you have a wondrful
way of getting ideas across
in simple language that
everbody can understand.
A few years ago you
printed the most true-to-life
poem I have ever read. It is
Mom’s favorite, too. Our
cope is falling apart from be-
ing passed around. Will you
print it again? Thank You,
Miss Ann.-I am “T” In N.Y.
Dear “T” In N.Y.: Here it
is again. It’s one of my
favorites, too. Thanks for
asking.

According to Roman
mythological legend, the
daisy (Beilis perehnis) owes
its origin ot the nymph
Belides, a dryad, one of the
many goddesses presiding
over forest, meadows ana
pasture. While dancing
with the other nymphs one
day, she attracted the at-
tention of Vertumnus, the
deity who presided over the
orchids. To escape his pur-
suit, Belides transformed
herself into a less
glamorous daisy-hence
“Beilis” the flower’s
botanical name. The
English name for the bellis-
flower is derived form the
Anglo-Saxon “daeges
eage,” or “day’s eve.” This
refers to its habit of closing
its petals at night and on
dark rainy days.

and ended up feeling like
hell.
Dear Ann Landrs: Out
24-year-old daughter moved
back into our home because
she had to “get her life
together.” That was over, a
year ago. Shelly had just
broken up with a man with
whom she lived for 10
anxiety-filled months. She
confided in us that she had to
get away from him because
he abused her verbally and
physically. When she left
him, he moved to another ci-
ty.
Since Shelly has been
under our roof she has not
paid one cent for room and
board, although she makes
very good money. We are
aware that she has been sen-
ding the creep a check every
week and recently took out a
sizeable loan for him.
When Shelly returned
from her last trip to visit this
man, her head was badaged
and she has been having
headaches ever since. We
have urged her to get profes-
sions! help, but she says, “I
don’t need tt-I can handle
the problem on my own.” In-
cidentally, SHE is a profes-
sional person.
This situation is tearing us
up. Can you help
us?-Windsor, Canada
Dear Winds: You can help
yourselves by derailing your
daughter’s gravy train. Why
do you allow her to leech off
you while she goes into hock
for a man who beats her up?
Obviously the girl is sick
and is making you sick, too.
You.add nothing to her self-
esteem by allowing her to
behave in this shoody man-
ner. Cut it out.
Ann lenders’ new booklet,
“Sex and the Teenager,” ex-
plains every aspect of sexual
behavior-where to draw the
line, how to say no, the
various methods of con-
traception, the dangers of
VD, the symptoms and
where to get help. For a
copy, send $2 and a long,
self-addressed, stamped
envelope* (37 cents postage)
