Couple resists pressure to attend family wedding

By Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

If the dog seems well-adjusted to both households, your friend might opt for a sort of joint custody arrangement, where you have the dog during times when she is away, and visa-versa.

Dear Amy: I am concerned about your advice to "Working on it in the Midwest," who wanted to make amends for a drunken sexual assault he committed in college. I couldn't believe that you actually suggested he should turn himself into police!

I am a lawyer. He could be facing years of jail time! You should have suggested he seek legal counsel before following your terrible advice!

-- Concerned

Dear Concerned: In my answer, I wrote: "Are you prepared to face the possible legal consequences (including being charged with a crime and/or sued) for admitting guilt for what you've done?"

 

I intended that as a (perhaps too subtle) suggestion for him to do his due diligence and understand all of the consequences.
