Dear Queenie,
Our oldest daughter has graduated from college and has a job but still lives with us to save money.
Recently she started dating a guy and fell hard for him, so now she spends all her time with him and we hardly ever see her.
I think if she still lives at home she should spend some time with her family and at least come home to sleep.
Queenie, am I being old-fashioned?—Worried mother
Dear Mother,
Let your daughter know you miss her and would like to see her more often.
Also, invite the boyfriend to join you for meals and other activities so you can get to know him. After all, he may even become your son-in-law.
