You can't control your mom, but you can control how much time you spend with her.

Strange that Dear Abby didn't mention the oddity of a 23-year old daughter choosing to live with her grandparents instead of being with her divorced mom. Could there have been something "wrong" with the mom which necessitated the regular involvement of the dad?

Dear Abby didn't think this through...IMO.

Grandmas tend to be more forgiving and lenient with kids than parents. Mom my have kicked a shiftless daughter out and grandma took her in.

Based upon the replies, maybe Dear Abby should become a regular poster here.

I'm sure there is plenty to argue about. LOL

But, seriously, folks...

Some are actually quite good.

Dad Encourages Teen To Drink Before Heading to College

DEAR ABBY: My parents have been divorced since I was little, but I still visit Dad often, especially now that I'm fully vaccinated. What's causing the problem is I am leaving for my first year of college. Dad has been offering me alcohol while I'm at his house. I would be lying if I said I have never accepted a drink when he offered one, mainly out of curiosity. My mom, however, fervently believes I shouldn't touch alcohol until I'm 21. (I'm 19 now.)

I don't want to disappoint her because she's very strong in her opinions about it. But I also don't want my first alcohol experiences to happen states away from either parent while I'm at college. Dad shares this sentiment, but he pushes me to drink more often than I am comfortable with. Thankfully, when I tell him, he'll stop for the night.

I'm not sure which of my parents' sides I should take -- don't drink at all to make Mom happy, or drink with Dad and try to hide it to avoid the consequences. I know hiding things isn't good. Mom will eventually find out. But I think it's ridiculous to swear off drinking before going to college, where alcohol is around every corner. What do you think? -- ANXIOUS ABOUT ALCOHOL IN GEORGIA

Dear Abby, dear Abby
Well I never thought
That me and my girlfriend would ever get caught
We were sitting in the back seat just shooting the breeze
With her hair up in curlers and her pants to her knees

Signed just married

Just married just married
You have no complaint
You are what your are and you ain't what you ain't
So listen up buster, and listen up good
Stop wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood
Signed dear Abby
