EVEN FURRY PETS NEED SHELTER WHEN THE WINTER WINDS BLOW
ABBY: I have seen several dogs and cats left outside in
below-zero weather this winter. Yes, animals have fur to
help them keep warm, but that doesn't mean they don't get
cold (even in dog houses). People get cold staying outside
for an extended amount of time, even when bundled up, so
imagine how the animals feel. These innocent animals can
suffer from frostbite and hypothermia just like humans.
Won't you please remind your readers that pets should be
brought inside on cold days and nights?
-- ANIMAL LOVER IN NORFOLK, N.Y.
ANIMAL LOVER: While some breeds of dogs fare better in cold
weather than others, all of them need interaction with their
guardians. The animals you observed may have been left in
the cold out of ignorance on the part of the humans with whom
they co-exist.
I don't care how furry some of our furry friends appear to
be. Check with your veterinarian to see when your breed
should be brought indoors.
ABBY: I'm a divorced single mother with a 13-year-old
daughter I'll call "Gia." We live next door to an attractive
62-year-old widow I'll call "Doris," who has become like a
grandmother to Gia and a dear friend to me.
Last night I went to my daughter's room and found her
standing on a stool in her closet looking out a small window
into Doris' bedroom. When I asked Gia what she was doing,
she didn't answer, so I climbed up on the stool to see for
myself. Abby, Doris was in bed with her son, "Jeff," having
sex. I could hardly believe my eyes!
Jeff is 36 and a mama's boy. He has his own home but visits
his mother often. Gia said she has watched them many times
since we moved here four years ago, and described some of
the things she's seen.
I'm not sure how to handle this. Doris is very close to us,
and Gia seems unaffected when we get together for dinner or
the movies, etc.
Should I tell Doris and Jeff that I saw them? And what do I
say to my daughter, who has been "educated" beyond her years?
-- SEEN ENOUGH, CHAMPAIGN, ILL.
SEEN ENOUGH: You should definitely tell Doris that your
daughter has been getting an eyeful from her closet window,
and strongly suggest that Doris' curtains be closed when Jeff
is "visiting." And if you haven't already talked to your
daughter about sex -- and appropriate behavior -- it's time
you played catch-up, so don't delay.
I would find it hard to continue a friendship with a woman in
an incestuous relationship with her son. They're in serious
need of counseling.

ABBY: I am an assistant librarian in New Mexico. My daughter
recently told me she's going to convert to Buddhism. I'm
perplexed by her choice. I want to support her because her
aunt is also a Buddhist, but I wasn't raised Buddhist.
What advice can you give me?
-- LONGTIME READER
LONGTIME READER: As an assistant librarian, you're
surrounded by books. The time has come to pick up a couple
and start reading about Buddhism and Buddhist philosophy.
If you're near a computer, Google it. You'll find an
abundance of information on the subject. I would also
recommend that you attend a couple of meetings with your
daughter. That way, you'll have a better understanding of
what she -- and her aunt -- are attracted to.
