Dear Abby Sister's naming choice stirs family grief
A New England reader questions naming a baby after a deceased nephew to honor him. Abby suggests judging intention, hopes the grieving parents feel honored, and notes possible shift in attitudes toward young adult relationships across time. A second letter asks about a daughter's 300 mile trip with an older boyfriend. Abby advises allowing it. A third letter complains about gender equality and tipping expectations, with Abby prompting readers to request her wedding booklet.
