Dear Annie Advice Column Corners Family Life
A reader asks if she should discuss looming family pregnancy concerns with her father who will be 65 when a new baby graduates high school. Annie advises patience, notes he hasn’t asked for help, and suggests offering support only if needed. Grandparents question gifting Julie on 21st birthday amid perceived lack of ambition and responsibility. Annie advises gifts may continue but explain feelings, not withhold. A reader shares a shoe cover workaround for home shoe policies, noting disposable solutions exist from medical suppliers.
