Add a green salad and a heartv dessert DEAR CURIOUS: Men like you who get us all wound up! DEAR ABBY: There is mucJi controversy over the fact tha where there are children a coupk should stay together even thoug there is constant bickering an quarreling.

I believe that chi: dren are better off raised in th quiet atmosphere of a peacefu home with only one parent. Hov do widows manage? I depend your answer. TROUBLED MIND DEAR TROUBLED: Widow "manage" because of circum stances beyond their control. Divorced couples make their own misery. If married people would exercise one-half the effort toward making a peaceful and pleasant home for their children as they do in less important activities, they could eliminate the bickering and quarreling they find so impossible to live with.
