My fiance is 38, and this will will be his second marriage. His first lasted four years and ended in divorce before I knew him. (No children. I He never mentions his ex-wife’s name, and has never told me what went wrong with their marriage. His ex-wife lives in this city, and it would be very easy for me to contact her. A friend of mine has suggested that I call her, invite her to lunch and find out what went wrong witn tneir marriage. I am curious to know what his “ex” has to say, but on the other hand, I’m afraid of what I might hear. Is ignorance really bliss, Abby? BLISSFULLY IGNORANT DEAR IG: Nobody said, “Ignorance is bliss"; the quote is: “IF ignorance is bliss, ‘tis folly to be wise." If there is anything you want to know, ask your fiance. One woman’s leftovers is another woman's banquet. Skip the lunch. DEAR ABBY: My son and his family live near me, and for the last eight months I have seen a male friend of theirs stop in for coffee every morning while my son is at work. My daughter in-law and I have a close relationship, so I told her that I thought it looked bad for the neighbors to see this fellow's car parked in front of her house every morning—even though I was sure he was only a good friend. That was three months ago, and his car is still parked in front of their house every morning. Should I tell her that I will not be available to babysit anymore unless this practice is stopped? NAMELESS, PLEASE DEAR NAMELESS: You've already told her that you thought it looked bad for the neighbors, and it didn't seem to faze her, so I doubt that threats to quit babysitting for her would produce results. Even if your daughter-in-law is innocent of any wrongdoing, for her own sake, she’d be wise to avoid the appearance of evil.

She’s always been a good student, but because her girlfriend is being paid $lO for every “A" and $5 for every "B" on her report card she thinks we ought to reward her in the same manner. We expect our kids to get good grades, and we don’t feel that they should be paid for it. Kids always want what their friends have, and we think handing out tens and fives for“ A's” and "B’s" is wrong. What do you think? FED UP IN TEXAS DEAR FED UP: Parents, not children, make the rules in their own homes. You can’t control what goes on in other homes, but you can tell your children that you won't pay them for doing what they’re expected to do, regardless of what their friends' parents do.
