Friend's guilt over college assault haunts her
Dear Amy: I'm responding to "Left Out," who was executor of her father's will, only to learn that she had been left out of it.
I perform this function for my father, age 92. I have access to his lawyer and with the exception of being somewhat at odds with my other siblings, the will is in the best order it can be.
If I could give any advice to this daughter I would say that she needs to rescind her position as executor. To harbor the animosity she seems to have toward her father's decisions makes it a very unhealthy situation for what she will be responsible for after his death.
-- Dave
Dear Dave: Good advice. Thank you.
Dear Amy: "Totally Embarrassed in Defeat" was a chess player who was whining about losing.
I wonder if he would have felt "so embarrassed" if he had been beaten by a man. I don't blame the woman for rubbing his nose in the loss.
-- Sue
Dear Sue: A good deal of sexual politics seemed to be in play in this particular match.
