Lovelorn by Beatrice Fairfax about a family burden
A reader asks how to handle an aging, 60ish, nonworking father living in the home who weighs over 240 pounds and sleeps half the day. The writer explains she bears household duties and childcare while her husband suggests he leave, and she seeks advice on a firm but compassionate approach to involve the father in his care and residence decisions. The column notes that old people can drift into self absorption and should be guided toward reasonable responsibilities.
