Long-married pluggers only argue

Sisters working the streets
reach out to find escape
DEAR ABBY: I’m 19 and
my sister is 16. We have
been working as prostitutes
here in our state and in sev
eral nearby ones. We know
we need help, but we are
afraid to ask for it. Hotlines
and trafficking programs
have called the police on
friends of ours who
reached out for help. How
can we get help without
being forced to testify
against my boyfriend and
our other friends? — TERI
DEAR TERI: I’m glad you
wrote because there is help
for you. Contact an organi
zation called Children of
the Night. It has helped
thousands of young people
like you and your sister. Its
toll-free phone number is
(800) 551-1300, Ext. 0, and
it is staifed 24/7.
Children of the Night is
privately funded and does
not call the police on sex-
trafficking victims. Once
away from “the life,” you and
your sister will be able to
study for your high school
diploma online by emailing
wow@childrenofthenight.
org. If you would like more
information, please visit
www.childrenofthenight.
org and see for yourself. I
wish you luck and an easy
escape from “the life.” You
and your sister are in my
thoughts and prayers.

DEAR ABBY: I have a
dilemma, and I need to
know who’s right. My boy
friend of 2 1/2 years wants
me to move into his apart
ment, but he says I can’t live
there for free. He wants me
to pay half the rent, cable,
water and electric bills. I’m
OK with the cable, water
and electric. But I say the
rent is the same whether
I’m there or not, and I don’t
think I should have to pay
rent on his place. It would
be different if we were mar
ried. What do you think?
Who’s right? — MAYBE
MOVING IN
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
DEAR MAYBE: You are
an independent young
woman living in the 21st
century, and as such, you
should carry your share.
That the two of you are not
married is even more rea
son why you should share
the cost of the rent.
What your question
shows me is, if the relation
ship evolves further and you
consider making it perma
nent, that premarital coun
seling could help you and
your boyfriend avoid some
pitfalls later. Disagreements
about money often cause
marriages to fail.

DEAR ABBY: My sister
says it’s rude to arrive at a
party at the time specified
on the invitation. She insists
that if the time stated is 8
p.m., you shouldn’t arrive
before 8:30.1 disagree, and I
told her I believe that guests
should arrive on time and to
be late is disrespectful. Her
response was that I am
behind the times. Please let
me know who is correct. —
ON TIME IN FLORIDA
DEAR ON TIME:
Depending upon the type of
party it is, there is leeway. If
it’s a cocktail party, guests
who prefer not to stand
around drinking for hours
may choose to arrive late.
However, if it’s a dinner
party, the guests should
show up promptly so the
meal can be served when it’s
ready. Sometimes a guest
maybe 15 or 20 minutes late
because of unforeseen cir
cumstances, but if someone
is delayed for more than
that, the host should be
called and warned so the
dinner can proceed without
being ruined.
