Dear Amy: I’m not sure how to react to this, and I’m wondering what you think?
Dear Amy: My adult niece lives several hundred miles away, and said she wanted to come visit us in Florida with her husband and their new baby.I said of course, and we tossed dates around.
I had been thinking perhaps I could contribute $500 to their housing costs, which would have come close to covering their entire stay for a few nights in a local hotel.I want to be gracious and I’m happy they are making the effort to visit. But I was shocked to learn that my offer to “help” was translated to picking up a large hotel bill.If I’d known I would have to pick up the tab, I probably would have suggested another time of year when prices are not at seasonal highs.
Dear Amy: I have a 13-year-old daughter. She is a good kid, has nice friends, does pretty well in school and participates in theater.She’s also headed into those tougher teen years. She’s moody, but doesn’t seem depressed. Doesn’t seem to love hanging out with family the way she used to.Anyway, she just told me that she wants to shave her head.AdvertisementMy point is that monkeying with hair is one of the lower-impact choices a teen can make.
