Dear Ann Landers Advice Column Distorts Family Conflict
A reader in the Midwest asks how to handle a remodeling dispute with her father in law who funds and designs cabinets. The column urges asserting boundaries with polite firmness, noting the husband must speak up to avoid ongoing family tensions. A separate letter from Geneva, Switzerland, complains about frequent movie intermissions and snacks disturbing the film, while the columnist dismisses halting concessions as unlikely and cites rare long films. Gem of the Day shares a Steven Wright quip on conscience and memory.
