Ask Amy: Husband thinks his wife is too close to her kids

Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

Dear Tired: We all want to be a “stay-at-home girlfriend.” But life does not work that way.

“Chrissy” is not a good partner to you. Furthermore, she doesn’t want to be a good partner to you. I think it's time to break up.

Dear Amy: “Pondering Papa in the Pacific Northwest” has every right and should tell his daughter that she and her boyfriend must sleep in separate rooms during a visit.

The mother seems a little too delighted that her daughter is “sleeping around.” That’s why she is allowing it.

– Protective Dad

 

Dear Protective: The huge response to this question has revealed quite a double standard: The house belongs to the father and the daughter’s sexuality belongs to the mother.
