Dear Ann Landers,
ou are a menace to society. You really gave every irresponsible skirt-chasing male in the world the green light when you said on a TV program recently, "Unless a boy uses chloroform or a lead pipe, the girl is re-sponsible for whatever happens to her." For twenty years I have been a housemother for unmarried mothers. These girls are victims of weapons far more deadly than chloroform or lead pipes. They are sweet words of love and empty promises. It's high time parents taught their sons that girls are not play-things to be used for pleasure and then cast aside if something goes wrong. Every young man should be taught that a decent 190 boy is responsible for his girl. Several of my pregnant girls saw and heard you make that remark, and they became depressed because you placed all the blame on them. This letter is to let you know that I am canceling the subscription to the paper that prints your column.-Housemother
