Ask Amy: Parents on the fence over adultery
If this is posed as a statement (“You don’t have an LA accent,”) you can respond by deflecting and asking where they grew up.

Dear Amy: “Sad and Confused” was upset when their long-time friends basically snapped their vacation rental of many years out from under them.

– Island Renter
Dear Renter: I tend to agree.
