FacebookTwitterEmail
A couple are have a disagreement.JGI/Jamie Grill
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married five years and are raising four children. One is from my previous relationship, one is from her previous relationship and two are ours. We both have joint custody. My son goes to school near his mom. My wife s son goes to school where we live. They are 9 and 8.
There s a lot of tension between us because my stepson s father isn t the greatest parent. He never comes to school events or sporting events, so he misses half of everything. I regularly attend my son s events, which are a couple of hours away and take time away from my stepson. I put my 9-year-old first because he s my firstborn, and I have him less. My wife disagrees with this, and we fight about it constantly. I believe I am doing the right thing. Advice, please. WONDERING IN WISCONSIN

Even after 25 years, the pain persists.

On the afternoon of May 25, 1976, Andrews was dropping off her young daughter at the babysitter s on her way to her job as an assistant manager at Paul Harris, a women s clothing store at Belden Village Mall.
She didn t know she was being followed by her ex-boyfriend, who confronted her with four blasts from a shotgun.

Dear Annie: My husband and l have been married for 22 years. When we first married, it was young love. But throughout our marriage, he has been adulterous and abusive toward me, physically and verbally. I have a disability and have a hard time defending myself. He has choked me and held a knife to my throat and told me that one day he’ll kill me. I am 54 years old. I have nowhere to go. What should l do? Trapped
Dear Trapped: I’m sorry that your husband has abused you so terribly for decades. Although it may seem like you have nowhere to go, I promise you that isn’t true. Please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233) to be connected with resources in your area and begin making a safe escape plan. You should not have to live in fear for your life another day.
