It's hard enough -for a plugger to
keep up with the grandkids, let alone
the Joneses or the Kardashians.

Fiances aversion to pets
plants small seed of doubt
DEAR ABBY: My boy
friend and I have gotten
engaged and we are being
married in a year or so.
Everything about him is
wonderful, and I’m excit
ed to share my life with
him — except for one
worry. I have been an ani
mal lover my entire life.
After living with him this
past year with my two
cats, I have slowly come
to the realization that he
absolutely loathes the idea
of pets.
Besides my inability to
understand this (he has
never had a bad past expe
rience with an animal), it
makes me question his
compassion (or lack there
of) for all things living.
Should this be a red flag,
worthy of reconsidering
our engagement? —
CRITTER LOVER IN
NEW ENGLAND
DEAR LOVER:
Perhaps. Not everyone is
an animal lover, but it’s
usually because they
haven’t had pets or been
exposed to them. This
does not mean they lack
compassion for all things
living. It simply means
they haven’t interacted
with different species.
However, you say your
fiance absolutely
“Loathes” pets. If you plan
to have animals in your
household in the future,
you MUST have some
serious discussions about
it and lay your cards on
the table. If you don’t deal
with this now, it could be a
deal-breaker in the future.
DEAR ABBY: As a fre
quent traveler, there is the
inevitability of being seat
ed near children on air
planes. I can’t blame kids
for becoming a little bit
fussy. Often, they seem
miserably bored. My sad
observation is their parents
seem to be unprepared to
engage their kids.
When I traveled by
plane with my children, I
always planned ahead. I
packed plenty of healthy
snacks, a few surprise
treats and games, books
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
and art supplies to engage
them. I also talked to them
in advance about the trip,
the plane, who we were
going to visit and what we
were going to do after we
arrived. Strangers would
thank me at the end of the
flight for my children’s
good behavior.
Time on a plane is a per
fect opportunity to forgo
the hustle and bustle of a
typical day. Use the down
time to have fun and enjoy
special bonding time with
your kids and, hopefully,
give the other passengers a
break. -MILE-HIGH
PLAY TIME
DEAR MILE-HIGH:
I’m printing your intelli
gent suggestions in the
hope that as families travel
in the coming months,
they will be taken to heart.
I’m not doing this for the
benefit of airline passen
gers, but rather the com
fort of the children
involved. Thank you for
sharing your thoughts
with my readers and me.
You may not be an angel,
but today you have earned
your “wings.”
DEAR ABBY: I find
myself depressed 90% of
the time because I’m
afraid of death. Do you
think LGBTQ individuals
are doomed after death?
Will we go to hell? I’m
gay and I worry every day
about it. — STRESSED-
OUT IN GEORGIA
DEAR STRESSED-
OUT: I’m glad you asked.
Please stop worrying,
because you are making
your own hell right here
on Earth. LGBTQ indi
viduals are no more
“doomed” after death than
are straight people. The
misguided individual who
planted that idea in your
head deserves that fate,
not you.
