Us "Our 16-year-old daughter is un-. happy because we can't give her as much as a lot of the girls in her class at high school have.

I realize that many of them have nicer clothes, better homes, and more spending money than our daughter. We love her and give her everything we can manage-but still she feels it isn't enough. I can sympathize with her, because I remember what i was like to be her age--but I can't seem to say anything that will help her." There may not be much to say that a 16-year-old will find comforting. But don't let her temporary unhappiness make you unhappy. Teen-agers are often unhappy-if not one thing, over another.

While your daughter is wishing she had better clothes and a nicer home you may be sure other girls in her class are worrying about other things. Some are probably unhappy about their looks Others are sure to feel their families don't understand them. Others may feel that they aren't popular. And so it goes.
