Show DESERET NEWS, 10 Monday, January 20, 196 i e OF ALL THINGS By TERRELL DOUGAN I was getting kind of worried that I had united passed on all the bad things, and that he and his entire family tree were the world's only Perfect Physical Specimens when one day the doctor caught another inherited characteristic. See, he pointed out, she turns her ankles inward just a bit. Not serious. We call it pronating. On the way home I thought back through our familys history. Weve had some pretty inconvenient things, but you can darn well bet we never pronated. I called my husband on the phone. Youve passed on a bad gene, I said triumphantly. An undesirable characteristic, I added, for clarity and em-pnas- It's All Your Fault! Before we had children, we used to laugh ai our friends who were already parents. They would constantly blame each other for any undesirable traits in their children. Look at that nose," wed be told. Well, cant you see? It Charles nose, completely Charles. Its all through his family. Other than that, though, hes a darling boy . . . Or: Dam it, Jean, why couldnt she have curly hair like MY family always had instead of that stringy, straight mop . like in your family It used to be very funny. Then we nad children, t Right away they started getting ear Infections. My husband was wounded that I would do such a thing to them. Every time hed start out the door for more penicillin, hed We certainly never had any ear remind me haughtily, trouble in MY family. ..." I HAVE NOT, he said, as if a bad gene wouldnt dar go near him. What is it Your younger daughter pronates. Pronating in its extreme sense is running like Jerry Lewis does. I think you might have a tendency . . . I DO NOT PRONATE!" I was enjoying every moment of it. You're probably sitting there pronating right now. There was a little silence. I think he was checking his ankles. I do NOT, am not now, nor have I ever, pronated. Well then, how about your ancestors? Surely you can think of one weak ankle? I should say not! he thundered. Not even a hint of a corrective shoe? I suggested. NEVER! he boomed. But we both know, way down deep, that somewhere in his family, someone must have pronated, just once or twice. And I must admit that even in my family tree we irfay have turned in an ankle or two, but I'll certainly never admit it to him.
