Ask Amy: Contractor might renovate client’s life

Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers, as well as the professional rescue squads who risk their own safety to help those stranded or left behind.

You sound like a true survivor.

Dear Amy: “Annoyed Little Sister” was bothered by her brother’s incessant bragging. Through childhood, their mother had always set them up in a competition, with the brother on the bottom.

This sounds like my childhood. Blatant parental favoritism damages sibling relationships throughout life. I’ve found ways to rise above it, but the sadness endures.

– Also Annoyed

 

Dear Annoyed: Parents write the script, while siblings spend the rest of their lives reciting it.
