Dear Queenie,
I suspect that my daughter’s husband is cheating on her with a young woman where he works. He works all kinds of hours and doesn’t come home ’til late and she just accepts his lame excuses because she is so busy with their children.
Queenie, should I try to clue her in?—Suspicious mother-in-law
Dear Queenie,
The other day I offered someone a piece of chewing gum. When they gave me back the package I saw that they had taken 2 pieces when I only offered them 1.
Queenie, why are people so greedy?—Offended gum-chewer
Dear Queenie,
My husband and I have been married for about 7 years and we have a daughter who is 4 years old.
Dear Queenie,
A friend of ours is a recovering alcoholic and we are trying to be supportive. However, he has gotten into the habit of haranguing everyone about the dangers of drinking and how bad it is for you.
We are social drinkers, not alcoholics. We have a few drinks now and then but we don’t get drunk and his lectures make us really uncomfortable.
Queenie, how can we get him to lay off?—Fed up friend
Dear Queenie,
My boyfriend and I have been together for a couple of years now. I have a good job and can support the two of us, so I want him to quit his job and stay home to take care of our children because I’m afraid he will cheat on me with a co-worker or some woman he meets on the job.
