I told my Mother that her behaviour was totally out of line and that since she had made six phone Calls that evening i would not speak to her for six months. In a letter written the following Day i told my Mother i would be willing to speak to her before the six months were up if she would write a letter of apology to my former wife and her parents.

Young at heart thursday april 30, 1992 dear Boston your mothers behaviour was outrageous and inexcusable. I done to blame you for being upset. Your offer to renegotiate the six month penalty is in my opinion generous. I have a feeling your mothers out of control Mouth and penchant for meddling in your life is an old Story. The Best Way to Deal with her is firmly and from a distance. The less you Tell her about your personal affairs the less there will be to fight about. Dear Ann Landers this is about your answer to a torn in Indiana who finally found the woman of his dreams but stand her kids. Waiting until three of those four a loud ill mannered Lazy children were out of the House As you suggested May not be enough. Stepchildren have ruined an awful lot of Good marriages. If a a torn expects things to change after the kids Are grown and on their own he May be in for a very unpleasant Surprise. Some kids stick around for years. Oth ers return Home when they have rough sledding and expect daddy or Mommy to take care of them. Some who move out spend the rest of their lives asking for and receiving financial help from their folks. You be said in your column several times that the main reason for the failure of second marriages is the children. Amen sister. A victim in grand Junction Colo. Dear .
