In the letter he confesses he is gay and wants to come out of the closet. 1 felt as if my insides had dropped out. Lleft the letter just where I found it but I'm so terrified that he will mail it I can't think straight. I've been a faithful reader of your column since you first started to write it in the mid-50s, While I don't always agree with your advice, I believe you try to be fair and decent—and above all, helpful Please, Ann, do not print my son's letter if he decides to mail it. He seems to think it would make him feel better to confess publicly and he asks that you print his name. I am begging you not to do this. It might make him feel better but it would destroy the rest of the family. —Still Reeling and Trying to Hang On Dear Reeling: Have no fear. I would never allow my column to be used as an international billboard for gays who want to go public. Tsense a great deal of anxiety in your letter and a real need for emotional support. I hope you will get professional counselling to help you deal with the situation when your son makes the announcement. For those in my reading audience who will ask, “Why should she get counselling when he is the one who has the problem? say—because she i is the one. who is suffering.

The following true story points this up and I hope you will print it. I found it touching. A coach at Fort Lauderdale encountered a tall, muscular young man wearing a T-shirt on which was printed the words, “Help Stamp Out Virginity.” The coach wanted to say something but didn't know quite how to start. Finally he approached the young man and began a friendly conversation. After they talked awhile, tiie coach said, “Save that T-shirt. When you feel like you no longer want to wear it, wrap it up and put it away ina drawer. Mayhe in three or four years you'll meet a girl and fall in love and get married. If you're lucky, within'a few years you'll have children. Maybe you'll be fortunate enough to be blessed with a little girl. She'll be the apple of your eye. That little girl will grow up. Then one day you and your mother will be anxiously awaiting her first date. It probably will be some awkward, gangling kid you never saw before. That's the time, my friend, for you to go to the drawer, unwrap the T-shirt, and hand it to the kid so he can share your philosophy.” Wonder what kind of impression the coach made on that college boy? I cat tell you, it made a whale of an t nnpression on me. -A Chicago Parent Dear Parent: Move over. That makes two of us. Thanks for a heartwarmer to start the week.
