Ask Amy: Gift-giving creates problem, tough to unwrap

Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

– Sick of Sick Days

Dear Sick: The way you describe this, it seems most logical that your husband would take the majority of sick care for now, until you two reach a basic equilibrium in terms of your sick days in the bank.

Dear Amy: Thank you for your correct response to “Mama Bear,” whose abusive ex was the subject of a restraining order. Now the ex’s mother was reaching out to the grandchild.

I appreciate that you realize that family members sometimes violate restraining orders purposely by doing an end run around the order.

– Been There

 

Dear Been There: As I wrote in my response, “Mama Bear” is the gatekeeper.
