Dear Queenie,
My husband’s parents are getting older and they don’t give his kid sister any discipline because they say it’s just too much trouble. As a result, she does whatever she pleases, including lying and sometimes even stealing things.
Then she applied for a job where I work and they wanted me to write a letter of recommendation for her. I told them I wouldn’t know what to say and for a while most of his family wasn’t speaking to me, but then they invited my husband and me to a family get-together and everyone acted like nothing happened.
Queenie, I think they owe me an apology. Am I wrong?—Offended wife
Dear Wife,
You are not wrong, but you are not likely get an apology from these people either. Let it go, for the sake of peace in the family.
