Service contribute continue to compassion Dear Ann Landers: Please print something that a lot of teens will understand.

It's a message to my mother. Yes, Mom, I know my "little disappointments" are no big deal. I'm just a kid. What problems could I possibly have? When I'm an adult I'll find out what real trouble is. This is what you keep telling me.

But I really do have problems serious ones that bug me a lot. Why don't you understand? They may be petty to you but they are very important to me. You say you had a miserable childhood and that by comparison mine is easy. Yours was harder physically maybe, but not emotionally. You say I am ungrateful, that I take everything for granted and don't appreciate anything.

You keep telling me how much you sacrificed for me. I'm sure you don't realize how hard I try to please you. When you come home from work tired you feel you have a right to be demanding and nasty-tempered. You tell me to shut up when I start to talk about my day. When you are in a rotten mood you expect me to cater to you.

I feel like crying when you don't notice any of the things I did to please you. Instead you beef about the work that isn't done and complain because I didn't set the table right or the vegetables are a little overcooked. You tell me these are supposed to be the best years of my life. Don't you remember that the change from adolescence to adulthood can be very rough? It's hard for me to believe you were young once. Give me a break, Mom, I want to get along with you.

Please meet me halfway. I Am Your Daughter roses. The roses were accented with baby's breath and lace bows. The bride's nieces, Michelle Hornbeck, Waldo, Danae McElroy, Marion, and Lacey Rogers, Kenton, served as flower girls. They wore long orchid gowns with modified sweetheart necklines and carried baskets of tiffany violet roses, accented with baby's breath and matching silk streamers.

Charles Criswell, Marion, friend of the groom, was best man. Groomsmen were Tim Rogers, Kenton, brother-inlaw of the bride, Doug Retterer, Richwood, brother of the groom, and Lyle Hornbeck, Marion, brother of the bride. Ringbearer was Jerriod Schultz, the bride's cousin. The bride's father and the male attendants wore white Yves St. Laurent dinner tuxedos.

A reception at the Waldo Sportsman's Club followed the church ceremony. Betty Bell, Marion, the bride's aunt, served as guestbook attendant. The new Mrs. Retterer is a 1984 River Valley High School graduate. She is employed in Marion as a register operator.

The groom, a 1981 graduate of River Valley High School, is employed as a receiving clerk in Marion. The newlyweds spent their honeymoon in Columbus. Dear Daughter: I wonder how many teen-agers you spoke for today. On behalf of all of them I want to thank you for a very good letter. Dear Ann Landers: I didn't care for your response to the woman who complained because her husband agreed to split the dinner check evenly with the eight other couples.

(Some had lobsters and drinks, while they ordered chopped steak and drank club soda.) Why should people who are watching their money subsidize the high livers? Your answer didn't make any sense. Let Down In N.J. Dear L.D. In N.J.: To you, and thousands of others who didn't like my answer, I ask only that you read it again.
