Ask yourself teen Gen an a few minutes of sex Worth 117 if you Haven t sent for my books to on Leen age sex i recommend it. Many kids Are it reel snort but they have no real information on this subject. Dear Ann Landers the is in reference to a recent column about a 9 year old boy who heard a dirty word on to and asked hit parents Why when he said the same wont he was punished. The boy s Mother wrote neither my Hus band nor i had an answer. Can you help us you replied Good question. I Hove no answer either. Write to the sponsors and Tell them that if they Don t clean up their show you will refuse to buy their Why no answer Ann sounds like a cop out to me. What happened there arc several things that Mother could have said to her son. For example the Lille boy on to is not ours but you arc and we have cer Tain rules around Here that you must obey we want you to grow up to be a respected person. The kind of words you use tells people what you Are really like. We Don t use Gutter wards in our House because we Are not a Gutter if you want to suggest to the Mother that she write to the sponsor of. But that was certainly no answer for the kid. 1 can t believe you wrote such a half baked response. Surprised in South Carolina dear surprised neither can i. When i bomb out i do in in grand style. Thanks for the clabber t needed that. Lurt Anih tune synd Cin land ii to Loon i your Chi pm to in in Carlel to Liri it str Len. Apo fell. Us. Letter on complainers draws responses first let me say that i have the utmost respect far the meticulous methodical and hardworking German people. I sympathize wish and have compassion for any Host country that has had to Deal with ignorant or overbearing americans. But the writer a former . Serviceman now working on the German Economy who complained bout ramp Lainen in a letter printed april 20 must ask hindu Len Are these americans really ignorant or Are they simply confused and disoriented in l in True that these ignorant americans Are faced with a language Barrier different customs and a different Way of life while you obviously have been Lucky enough to adapt to these changes others Are not that fortunate. The american Soldier is a person who is faced with Many different languages Ana customs throughout his or her career. Are you saying thai every american Soldier should be fluent in every language and thoroughly educated in the customs of All Host countries my that would be a feat would t in since you Nave and happily acclimated yourself id a different culture and Way of life then Why do you find it necessary to evaluate the grievances of the american Soldier at the commissary or Exchange you Bave complained about americans trying to tune in to an. Arc you saying that americans abroad should alienate themselves from All aspects of he american Way of life there is nothing wrong with trying to hold on to a piece of the Patrick Reynolds Chile lion a Greece i applaud the writer whose letter Offe Ivd advice to complainers and bal Lachon for voicing an opinion that is shared by at least one other observer. And hav ing done so i res. Eric a Row Augsburg West Germany to Loo have a Tew words to say to the complainers if in weren t for people like you we would still be living in caves and cleaning our clothes in streams by beating them with rocks. No improvements Are Ever made until someone expresses a desire to see a change. Personalty i dislike clothes shopping so i order my clothes from Cata logs. However if Exchange shoppers need changes made they have to speak out loudly. 1 live on the Economy try to speak German and sigh Sec whenever possible i love being Here and t Hope 10 stay Long enough to Sec everything i want to see. I also realize there arc Many people out there who arc miserable and can t share my enthusiasm. Well thank god if we All Felt exactly the same about every thing this would be a Boring world full of robot like beings. I feel ins pity for the complainers than 1 do for the comp Linen who complain about the complainers. These Are the ones who truly bore me because they refuse to hear other people s opinions when they differ from their own. There would never be any Progress made in any area of our lives Medicine living conditions Quality of merchandise etc., if not feb Rich com. name withheld Mainz West Germany sounds like you have a few complaints too. But i do not have any advice for you. Lunetti Thieu Stuttgart i Loo dislike hearing americans constantly complaining 1 also think that american should try to learn some German and something about the culture. 1 think however that the writer misses an important Point it Normal for people to wish at Lomci to go Back to their i be been All Over the world in the last ii years i be heard British italian Ger Man korean japanese etc., spouses complain of homesickness it s not just americans who do in this writer was generalizing. But even if what he wrote was True As citizens of a free nation thai has kept a Large part of the world from becoming a collection of police states for the last 40-Odd years we have a right not to blend into he local Community if in both ers us. After All we Haven t immigrated to Germany. We also have a right to Bellyache to our heart s Content just As you have a right to have your loiter published in an american newspaper. Tech. Set William a Gemer Lindy As a i Germany yes there Are americans in Germany who Are having problem adapting to their situation. And i m witling to bet there Are a lot of americans in Germany who not Only share All of the difficulties with the Exchange commissary. An the language Barrier and the falling Dollar but also somehow manage to take some time off from their incessant griping and actually get out and enjoy their Tours in Europe. As a matter of fad i la bet the complainer Enjo yers arc in the majority now those of us americans who Are complaining and not enjoying our tour in Germany Well we had belter straighten up and Fly right had t we As a Mailer of fact i la bet that a 1 of our problems can be solved by completely ignoring All of the american facilities and services provided for us becoming completely fluent in the native language and becoming full fledged fully integrated members of the local Economy who Are totally dreading any Prospect of getting Back to the world since we Are enjoying ourselves overseas so much that he thought of Velum ing to our own Homeland is totally out of the question. Those of us who have the nerve to express our grievances and problems we be had adjusting to life in a foreign country Are obviously of inferior intellect. We apparently Lack the motivation to overcome these obstacles and would rather Wallow in our discontent. Maybe there would be fewer of in around if people like you would get off your High horse show a Little patience to those of us who Are having problems adapting and help Oul with some of Niheu problems. I was Lucky enough to have a Friend who did just that with me i have Learned some German i do gel Oul and see the sights and meet the people and. For some strange reason still have problems with the Exchange commissary falling Dollar Teh. Sgt Lawrence a Roll Rhein Maln a weal Germany pen pals i noun in Watt to pm to Ita Traa Mil i in n i 03.
