Dear Queenie,
My Dad cheated on my mother and they got divorced. That was years ago and he still hasn’t admitted that he did anything wrong. He hardly keeps in touch with me anymore, just an occasional phone call or e-mail.
Queenie, should I just leave things like that?—Divorcees’ son
Dear Son,
Unless there is something you have not told me, your father did not do anything wrong to you, only to your mother, and it is to her, not to you, that he must make (or has already made) his admission of wrongdoing and, hopefully, his apology. Do not interfere.
