Oftentimes we are not prepared to deal with even the most basic human experiences — be they tragic or joyful. Life is filled with extraordinary situations which effect us in the most unexplainable ways — always seeming to take us completely unawares and unprepared. Indeed, life itself seems to be a never-ending string of capricious […]
Suburban wives have an image; they are all supposed to be sweet, concerned mothers who drive their children to school, watch soap opera, go to PTA meetings and cook for their husbands. But is this image real? The answer, like most serious answers, is a complex one. Many wives in fact do lead domestic, tranquil […]
The process of growing up and passing through adolescence has been characterized by great inner turmoil, uncertainty, and tremendous pressures from family, close friends, peer groups and the neighborhood itself. Certainly, in our complex society, the problems youths face now seem more marked than ever before. Debby Devlin is a teen-ager embarking on her own […]
Outwardly suburbia maintains the straight laced, middle-class look that belies the social ferment behind closed doors. There in the secret use of drugs, fed by the marijuana syndrome.

Who can judge a person’s reactions during stress situations? The prisoner of war who gives in to his captors’ demands, the kidnapped heiress who joins forces with her abductors — both must act without past experience to guide them. The end result can be either a very negative or a positive experience. In KIDNAPPED AND […]
One of mankind’s most basic, most important institutions is marriage. Yet today, at least in the United States, matrimony is crisis-ridden at best, seemingly in a state of near-collapse at worst. The malaise chiefly affects couples in their late twenties and early thirties, products of the post-World War II baby boom, growing up during the […]
A healthy family unit is the basis of the American way of life. Years ago, a person’s extended family played a big part in his life. Uncles, aunts, and grandparents often lived in the home and took on an advisory or supportive role. We seem to be moving away from this type of situation today. […]
