Dear Queenie,
Our grown-up children are on the outs with each other, we don’t know why, and won’t come to any family celebration we want to have.
Queenie, do we just have to put up with this or what can we do about it?—Worried Parents
Dear Parents,
Talk to your children separately and try to find out what is the reason for their separation and what, if anything, you can do to make things better. There may not be much you can do, but at least you will have tried. Having done that, all you can do is hope – and, if you are so minded, pray – for reconciliation.
