Ask the Counselor . . .

By SUSAN LAUTZ. LPC.

Dear Susan:
My son married a woman with two daughters and they now have a baby boy. Even though I’m not particularly fond of my son’s wife, I make it a point to remember her and her daughters on birthdays and at Christmas. I try very hard to pick nice gifts and often have a little financial strain doing it. The problem is that neither the mother nor the daughters ever acknowledge my gifts. I know I’m not going to get a handwritten note, but a phone call would be nice. These ladies all have phones that never leave their hands. They could spare a few minutes to talk to me.
