Anytime my husband of 20 years and I have a disagreement, he calls his parents to complain about me.

Because of this, I have cut off contact with his relatives, a...

Our 19-year-old daughter lives 100 miles away at college. My wife has an elderly mother. My problem is family and friends who text early in the morning.

We had anywhere between six and 25 conversations a day. For months it was never an issue. All of a sudden, I got blocked on her social media, and her boyfriend (my husband’s good friend) sent me a message telling me to leave her alone! I felt blindsided, since it was out of the blue with no warning or any discussion between her and me about th...

Dear Abby: Grateful mom honors life of young son's benefactor FacebookTwitterEmail A mother wants to thank 'Bill,' who helped out her son.Tony Anderson/Getty Images DEAR ABBY: On Sept. 14, 2017, you printed my letter about my ex-husband “borrowing” money from my 13-year-old son’s piggy bank. Soon after, you reached out to tell me a gentleman (the founder of an organization that helps people who have been wronged) wanted to send my son twice the amount of money that had been taken from him. My son was humbled, to say the least. Not only did that gesture restore my son’s faith in people...
