I could go on, but I think you have the picture. Thanks in advance for printing the "other side." EASIER TO DO IT MYSELF DEAR EASIER: Yes, and cheaper, too. Thanks for writing.

DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am a mother of three active children and I seem to be working my tail off from morning till night. I am not complaining. I love my husband, my kids and my home. The problem is my sister-in-law. Lizette has three children whose ages are the same as mine all under five.

Four days a week Lizette drops her kids off at my house while she does charity work and gets her picture in the paper for being on this committee and that committee. I think it is wonderful that Lizette is interested in community affairs, but I feel she is taking advantage of me. Not only do I bathe, feed and care for her kids, but she hands me her grocery list and says, "While you're getting your groceries, please get mine." What do you think of this? LIZETTE'S PATSY DEAR PATSY: I think Lizette has found herself a free babysitter, grocery shopper and all-around chump. But the question isn't what I think, it's what you think, and apparently you think it's fine or vou'd have done something about it. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I married an immature, lazy, lying scoundrel against the advice of my family, friends, my clergyman, and you.

After six months of hellish fighting and being called every name under the sun I told him. (through the bandages) that I wanted a trial separation three months. The three months were over last week. I realize now that I must have been crazy to have married that loon and crazier still to have put up with his cruelty. I am filing for divorce tomorrow.

The question: Should I return the wedding gifts? Some of them are still in the boxes ALIVE AT LAST DEAR ALIVE: The wedding gifts belong to the wife unless she makes a special agreement with her husband as part of the divorce settlement.
