Girl gets no security from installer of home system
DEAR ABBY: After reading the letter from the same room with us. I couldn’t believe what I
“Concerned in Northbrook,” where the
14-year-old niece was instructed to stay
home alone and let the tile man in. I
feel compelled to share my story.
My former husband, “Steve,”
seemed attractive, gentle and polite.
While working as an installer for a
nationwide security company, he lured
a 14-year-old girl into his van and sexu
ally assaulted her. Her parents’ determi
nation to shield their daughter enabled
Steve to plea-bargain a prison sentence of only
eight months. After his release. Steve returned to
work as an installer for a satellite TV company
and currently works for another security compa
ny, installing systems in homes.
Although he is a registered sex offender, no
one would ever guess Steve is a pedophile. His
parole officer told me that he shouldn't be
around children. Can you imagine leaving your
14-year-old daughter home alone to let in my
charming former husband?
AKSO CONCERNED
DEAR ALSO CONCERNED: Your warning is
chilling. Parents, please take note and take noth
ing for granted. Better to be overly cautious than
not cautious enough.
DEAR ABBY: I just turned 13. My best friend,
“Heather.” moved an hour away, and we have
kind of drifted apart. On Saturday. I ran into her
at my fnend "Tanya's” house here in town. We
all went to the mail, and Heather met "Johnny.” a
16-year-old guy who goes to my school.
Well. Johnny came back to Tanya’s house
(her parents weren’t home), and he and Heather
were all over each other. They were hot and
heavy on the couch while Tanya and 1 tried to
watch TV. To make a long story short, Johnny
and Heather ended up having sex right there in

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(April 8). This year, kick up
your heels. A raise or promo
tion happens not because
you're the hardest worker but
because you have the most fun
at what you're doing. A big
purchase will help you contin
ue to make more money. May
has you traveling and meeting
all kinds of potential new
loves. Your lucky love signs
are Capricorn and Cancer.
Your lucky numbers are: 22,
10, 29, 33. and 7.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) Being diverse and flexi
ble will make you attractive.
You can go from a serious
statement one moment to a
joke the next. The air of
unpredictability around you
keeps people watching for
what’s next.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) Everyone goes at his or
her own speed in life, and
yours is usually a steady,
determined gate except on
days like today, when it’s
more like a race car in the
Indianapolis 500. No one else
can keep up, but that’s fine
with you.

Plus, I’m scared my mom will hear about what
went on that day. What should I do?
STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT
DEAR STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT: Tell the
truth. Say that you and Heather used to be close
friends, but since she moved away you're not
close anymore.
P.S. I hope you will tell your mother what
happened that day. Heather’s mother needs to
know that her daughter is sexually active, and
vulnerable to STDs and pregnancy. It will be
doing Heather a tremendous favor, and help her
to avoid a lot of trouble in the near future.
DEAR ABBY: I’ve just had the most dreaded of
all shopping trips: the New Bra Expedition. No
woman over the age of 12 looks forward to it.
Now brassiere manufacturers have made
things worse by placing the strap length adjust
ment in the back of the bra. What were they
thinking?
I’d be interested in hearing from other women
about this lunacy. Abby, dear, let’s start a cam
paign to return sanity to women’s underwear.
DOUBLE-JOINTED IN DAYTON
DEAR DOUBLE-JOINTED: I’ll join you on
the bandwagon because 1 too sometimes wonder
whether certain garments have been designed by
men w ithout first consulting women.
Under the stars’gaze
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
How do you know you can
trust yourself to make the
right choice? By continuing
to put boundaries up and then
stick to them, you reinforce
to yourself that you're willing
to do what it takes to treat
yourself with care.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Assess the problem, and
then, act. It’s simple, really.
Some of you will be learning
for the first time the value of
holding yourself in high
esteem you may even get
the guts up to leave a rela
tionship that does not serve
you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Job
seekers: Do some personal
development work on your
self before you investigate the
market fully. It’s necessary to
build up your own self-worth
and trust your intuition to be
able to discern what job situ
ations are right for you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
For those of you who are
wondering what you’re doing
with your life, here’s a hint:
Life is ticking away as you sit
and wonder. Your fire still
exists, but it is being covered
up by doubt. Let go of the
fear, and the clouds clear.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Neediness is a motivator. You
could reach out to new love
for the sole reason that your
heart needs comfort, or you
could do a killer job at work
for the sole reason that you
need the money. Pisces and
Leo are favored signs.
was seeing they hadn't known
each other more than a few hours.
The news about Johnny and
Heather spread fast. Everyone wants
to know if I still consider Heather
my friend. Kids are calling her
"easy,” along with other names I
won’t mention.
As much as I want to be her
friend. I’m worried about getting a
bad reputation if I stick up for her.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). If you’ve got a regular 9-
to-5 job. you'll struggle to
stay interested today. And if
you work for yourself, you’re
in trouble because there's no
one telling you not to day
dream or spend too much
time on the phone.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). There’s a chance to
make dreams come true
jump on it. no matter how
far-fetched it may seem.
Dramatic moves will be rec
ognized with dramatic
results. Appreciate, and be
appreciated.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-
Jan. 19). It’s a lucky day;
take a small risk. Some of
you will even fall in love.
You can get closer to a love
interest by asking better
questions. Use humor to help
with tough personalities and
children who need much
encouragement.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Don’t be surprised if
you have feelings of ecstasy,
jealousy, agony and bliss all
in a day’s work. Not every
thing has to be perfect, so
just get it done. What you're
doing doesn't matter as much
as the fact that you’re in
action.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). You'll get a diligent
start. Don’t try —just do.
Too much effort and analysis
leads to going in circles with
no goal in sight. Instincts are
honed. A lucky guess might
just make you rich!
