Dear Abe: I am one father for a girl. Becca, 17, is 17 years old. She was dating this man, and as soon as she came out, she planned to move with him and two of his friends (another couple). What worries me is that their relationship is very toxic. They are always fighting. She begged her not to move with him, but she will not budge.
Becca has some abandonment issues. Her mother left us when Becca was a child, and my second wife was emotionally offensive to everyone before we fired. I think this is the reason why Becca refuses to know how bad her relationship.
How can I show Becca that she is making a big mistake? I do not want her to end up in a horrific relationship. I am also worried about pregnancy immediately because neither of them can control themselves. Please help. – My father is one in Arizona
Dear Dad: After a year of fighting with her boyfriend, Becca has changed her opinion on moving with him as soon as she graduated. (One can only hope.) However, if you don't, try to reach a compromise with it. Tell her that you love her, and your door will always be open if she needs to go home.
Ask Becca if you will be ready to start using the long -term birth control (reflected), such as IUD or birth control, to ensure that she is protected from unplanned pregnancy, which may disrupt her life. Your family doctor can explain her options to her if she is ready. (I cross my fingers that see wisdom.)
Dear Abe: Last year, my father was given a cold manual lamp for his birthday. She was rechargeable and had an advantage that made her worked fanos. He looked excited about that and told me again that he was using it.
Abe, this week, gave my father the lamp as a gift. Not only that, he continued and how thinking about “finding” this unusual tool for me! He kept asking if I loved it. I said, yes, I thought it was great, and that is why I gave him him last year. It does not seem to understand what I was saying and asked me again and again to tell him how much I appreciate the gift. I decided not to make a lot on this topic, but I believe that all of our feelings were injured.
Is this type of forgetfulness a sign of something greater I should be concerned about it? He does a model old man to repeat stories from good days, but this kind of frank forgetfulness is new. – That is in Washington
Dear those who: Yes, in addition to repeating stories about “Good Days”, something like this He is The cause of anxiety. If your mother is still in the picture, remind her of how this was from your father. Ask if she has noticed any changes. If she has, she indicates that when his doctor sees his next body, he is rated nervous to ensure that there is nothing wrong. If he lives alone, discuss this with your brothers, if you have any, and suggests that “someone” accompany my father to his next medical date.
