Life Advice From Dear Abby But Not Abby Here
A reader asks about an elderly mother living with a man his age and the gossip it causes. Ann Landers suggests not judging, advises the daughter to let the mother handle explanations, and notes moral ambiguity but social risk in the living arrangement. A second letter asks how to handle a wife warned to diet and quit smoking. Landers responds that continued self-harm signals indifference to life and shifts to how to motivate living, while a third hostile note derides caretaking and belittles the reader.
