A mother in Ohio is struggling with her new stepmother who continually gives her unsolicited and dangerous parenting advice that goes against official recommendations. Despite trying to be polite, the stepmother is persistent and even claims to have nursing experience, which is later revealed to be false. Dear Abby advises the mother to continue following safe parenting practices, ignore the stepmother’s advice, and not allow her to hold the baby in the car without a car seat.
In another letter, a woman in Michigan is contemplating divorce after realizing she made a mistake by marrying her self-centered husband who is intolerant of her snoring. Dear Abby recommends seeking legal advice to understand the implications of divorce and suggests that the woman may be better off on her own given the history of her husband’s family and his ex-wife’s complaints.
These letters serve as a reminder that relationships and marriages can be challenging, and seeking outside advice or professional help may be necessary to navigate difficult circumstances. Dear Abby offers a non-judgmental and practical perspective on these complex interpersonal issues, providing guidance and support to those seeking help.
