Inc. DEAR ABBY: My wife and I fixed up our backyard with a slide, swings and a sandbox for our grandchildren to enjoy when they visit us on weekends. The neighbors’ children (and there are many) asked if they could play in our backyard during the week, and we saw no reason to refuse them. Well, last week a neighbor girl fell off our swing and broke her nose and two front teeth! (They were not baby teeth, so they have to be replaced.) The girl’s father informed us, through his lawyer, that WE are liable for the doctor and the dental bills. Our own lawyer said we had to pay it because it happened in our yard. Abby, we’re just average middle-class people, and this has hit us hard. I hope you’ll print this as a warning to other naive, big-hearted people who can ill afford such generosity. STUCK DEAR STUCK: Will do. But if you had spent just a few dollars for insurance, you would have been “covered’’—not stuck! Readers, talk to your insurance agent, and be sure YOU’RE protected. DEAR ABBY: I have a European man friend who lives abroad but comes here very often on business for his government. We are very close physically and emotionally, have even spoken of marriage and have exchanged “I love yous” many times. The only thing I don’t like about him is that he’s cheap. Last Christmas he sent me a seashell and a T-shirt. The seashell was beautiful—if you like seashells. And the T-shirt was obviously secondhand. I have nothing against secondhand clothes, but I don’t think they are appropriate for a gift. 1 didn't mention it for several months, but it kept bugging me, so I finally wrote him and got it off my chest! Well, 1 haven’t heard from him since. All his letters up until then were lovey-dovey. Do you think I made a mistake telling him I thought he was cheap? I’m sorry now. Should I write him again and apologize? I miss him, and I do love him. GIRLFRIEND DEAR GIRLFRIEND: A secondhand T-shirt is a firsthand indication of his chintziness. However, it’s the thought, not the value of the gift, that counts. You were right to level with him, but if you love him and miss him, write and tell him so. And if you get him back, I hope you realize you’ll have a man who’s cheap. DEAR ABBY: What do you think of a 20-year-old college girl who had to be bribed, coaxed and begged to help her mother clear the table, dry the dishes, make her own bed, hang up her own clothes and do her own ironing? When she’s away at college, she lives at the dorm and ships her laundry home for her mother to do and ship back. She has never tried to get a summer job to help pay for her college expenses. Instead she goes out every night and sleeps until noon. Ever since she was a young girl, she has expected me to be her slave. Why? HER MOTHER DEAR MOTHER: Because somewhere along the line she was given the impression that she could get away with it. And apparently she was right. x z /j i tJv ,o // Jl \ \HJ # I ATLANTA CITY, N.
