One of the best friends
I ever had was a man
who has long since
departed this earth.
He was a prince of
a guy. He never saw a
stranger and would literally
give you the shirt off his
back. He was dependable
and you could always count
on him. His word was his
bond. I would have trusted
him with my life. He had
only one fault he liked to
take a drink, but he limited
it to once a month. Just
like clockwork, on the third
day of the month, when the
postman delivered his social
security check, he would
high tail it to the liquor
store and come away with
two big quarts of Ancient
Age bourbon. He would sit
down at his kitchen table
and proceed to imbibe the
spirits.
He would quaff down sev

time, followed by a swig
of coke. As the fiery elixir

Overprotective parents
not necessarily off base
QUESTION: I have a
friend who guards her
kids as if they were in
mortal danger. I feel
like she should let them
spread their wings a lit
tle, even though they’re
only 9 and 11 years of
age. Who do you think
is right?
DR. DOBSON: Two
decades ago I would have
suggested that she give
them space, because over
protection of children cre
ates some characteristic
problems.
Today, however, I have
to agree with your friend.
The environment in which
kids are being raised has
changed dramatically in
recent years.
Unspeakable dangers
haunt our schools and
streets that were almost
unheard of a generation
ago.
Yesterday’s families
didn’t worry much about
drive-by shootings, illegal
drugs, sexual molesters and
kidnappers.
