Dear Amy: I have three children in their 30s. My oldest son (no. 1) and my middle daughter have been very angry at each other for over a year. Neither will admit any fault or apologize.
My oldest son and my middle daughter have been very angry at each other for over a year.In my opinion, my daughter is maybe 70 percent responsible and number one son is 30 percent responsible. Neither will admit any fault or apologize.Son no. 1 and his wife will be having their first baby in four months, and so far, he is saying that we can’t tell our daughter.
In terms of your wife, I suggest that you both keep this in mind: Any time you make a decision based on fear, the outcome will not serve anyone well. My daughters have chosen two very different career paths – one makes VERY good money, while her sister struggles to pay monthly bills.I don’t want to cause any issues.Dear Mom: Yes, it is OK to help your struggling daughter. Being in a financial bind is extremely stressful; help can give someone room to breathe, as well as a fresh start. Unfortunately, however, repeated bailouts could interrupt her progress.
