Dear Abby: People keep asking about daughter’s puberty
People keep asking about daughter’s puberty
What is a good way to reply that it is none of their business without seeming rude?
If the person is someone I don’t know well, I would reply, “That’s a personal, private matter between my daughter and me.”
Dear Abby: I am curious about your opinion on setting people up on dates.
Do you think it’s a good idea to set a friend up with a family member? I’m worried if it doesn’t work out that my friendship with her won’t be the same.
Personal chemistry is hard to predict, and if they are both mature individuals, neither should blame you if there isn’t a “spark” between them.
How should I tell her to start coming on time? I really don’t want to find another teacher, but this is very annoying.
Before your next lesson, talk with the woman and tell her how you feel. about her inability to stay on schedule.
An occasional 15-minute wait is understandable; making someone wait an hour or more is inconsiderate and disrespectful.
