Dear Abby column reprint from 1968 helps teen letters
Abigail Van Buren revisits a teen guidance exchange about a 14 year old girl who hates her mother and worries about supervision over money and friends. The response emphasizes parental boundaries and love, noting that strict but loving parents help children grow. The letter’s writer later reflects as a 20 year old preparing for marriage, thanking Abby for the insight.
