Girl says father unfair treats her like a dog by Elizabeth Thompson Many letters come to this column from boys and girls who think they Are badly used by their parents. Some of them Are merely spoiled and unappreciative but the youngster who wrote the following seems to have a real grievance. She says dear mrs. Thompson please advise me what to do As i need help at once. I m i write this letter and my heart is broken. You can imagine what kind of a Christmas i had and what Chance i have of a Happy new year. I am 17 and go school. I Haven t All my books be cause dad says i Don t need them. I am not considered very Good looking but am liked by. All my friends and teachers., i Don to dance or smoke. I get along Well at school and at Home. My Mother is the Dearest Sot ii that Ever lived and i love her and my Brothers and Sisters. Here is my. Problem. My dad has a Good position and owns a few farms. Therefore i think that we can. Afford to have a few. Things. Last year he got sore at me because i was told to do a Little Job and forgot about it. Since then tie does t speak to me As to daughter but to a. Dog. I would t dare ask him for Money for cards cafes or hockey games. If i did ask him i would never get it. Recently i needed a few articles for Christmas shoes and a dress. When i asked Money he said i could t have it. I needed the things badly and could have got them for about my Sisters and Brothers can have All they want. I Don t see Why i have to be the Black sheep of the family. J cry myself to sleep every night and Pray that god will bless me. I often feel like leaving Home but i know i could t leave Mother alone. If i did i could t go to work because i Don t feel Well after an operation. Is there any Law in Saskatchewan forcing a father to buy necessary clothing for children if so what can i do till what age do parents support us downhearted. Are obliged by Law of to provide Bare necessities for children until they Are 16, but could turn them out on their sixteenth birthday. Therefore any thing you get from your father now favor not a right. I certainly think that can , he is morally obliged to his Chil Dren a Good a reasonable amount of spending Money necessary clothes. No matter what your. Should give you a Chance to make and treat you As Well As the rest of by. It., was t your idea to be the and your faults Are the result o f heredity and environment. Maybe your Mother is soul Shie business to be so and mouse like. She too has a responsibility towards you ails should try to secure better treatment and understanding. She could also buy things for you out of her. Housekeeping., Money or buy them on talk the situation Over with her and see if you can t plan improvements. Also try to earn Money minding children.
