Father/son driving lesson takes wrong turn
During this whole conversation, my husband was also trying to do his job and help customers. What are your thoughts?
-- Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Dear Between: I completely agree with your father. Yes, perhaps he shouldn't have confronted his son-in-law at his workplace, but your husband needs to offer a sincere and personal apology to your mother. A bouquet of flowers might help. If he wanted to "moustache" someone, he should have done it to his own face.
Dear Amy: I was concerned by the advice you gave to "Mama Bear," whose bisexual son was dealing with his homophobic aunt.
You should not have told this boy to stay in the closet!
-- Concerned
Dear Concerned: I did not tell this boy to stay in the closet. I did convey that he should not feel pressured to discuss his sexuality with his bigoted aunt. It is none of her business.
