Dear Ann Landers Knitting and trust in marriage conflicts
A reader argues knitting signals a weak mind and describes a husband juggling two activities and an election as signs of his vanity. Ann Landers responds that knitting is a skill not a flaw and explains his behavior reflects an ego need for the illusion of efficiency rather to true achievement. A second letter asks how to handle teen dating boundaries and parental trust. Ann advises staying present elsewhere while teens have guests and avoiding overbearing control. A final note thanks Ann and promotes her book Necking and Petting and How Far To Go with a request for 20 cents and a self addressed stamped envelope.
