Dear Queenie,
My brother’s girlfriend, who is a lot younger than us, is all the time on the phone calling or texting our mother. My brother has been dating her for a while, but he says he isn’t even thinking about asking her to marry him.
Queenie, is what she is doing normal?—Worried sister
Dear Sister,
Your brother’s girlfriend may need a “mother figure” because her own mother is out of the picture for some reason. Or she may think this is a way to get closer to your brother. Whatever the reason, it is up to your mother to cope with her.
