Daughter Can’t Convince Her Parents to Change Their Diet
DEAR ABBY: I am greatly worried about DEAR BRENDA: The surest way to “stop
the health of my parents. My mother has Type the nonsense” would be to quit mixing busi¬
2 diabetes, and my father has high cholesterol ness and personal relationships. Inform you;
and blood pressure. Both of them have boss that her husband’s behavior is sexual
eating habits.
I have tried convincing them to
eat healthier and exercise, but they
are stuck in their old ways. Mom
still brings home cookies, brownies
and candy, and Dad still eats cheese
and deep-fried foods. How can I get
them to adopt a healthier lifestyle?
— DEEPLY CONCERNED
DAUGHTER, LO GATOS,
CALIF.
DEAR DAUGHTER: As much as you
love your parents, you cannot do for them
what they refuse to do for themselves. I am
assuming that their physician has warned them
about what will happen if they continue eating
the way they do.
You can offer encouragement, but you can¬
not force them to give up their unhealthy
lifestyle. You can also learn from their poor
example and not backslide into the eating
habits you learned as a child growing up in
their household.
DEAR ABBY: A group of us from work
go out for drinks a few times a week. My
boss’s husband hits on me in front of her, and
she doesn’t say anything. A few of my co¬
workers are lesbians, and they hit on me, too. I
don’t have a boyfriend, but I have never been
attracted to people of the same sex. I enjoy
going out, but feel uncomfortable, and they
are my only friends. How do I stop all this
nonsense?

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY
(MAY 28). You come to
understand your relationships
with greater clarity this year,
so it’s easier for you to be
patient, compassionate and
tender with others. That does¬
n't mean you'll give up being
sassy once in a while - you
like your audience awake!
Professional gains in August
are really something to be
proud of. Capricorn and Aries
adore you. Your lucky num¬
bers are: 7, 54, 30,5 and 20.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The general tone around you
seems muted. You'll have to be
more expressive than ever in
order to drum up enthusiasm.
Deliver the big joy and by
afternoon you'll start to see
some sunshine from others.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You're not sure if someone
likes you for you, or whether
it's some other part of the "you
package" that's getting the
love. Either way, enjoy the
attention and, for now, guard
your heart.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
It’s hard to narrow your inter¬
est to one thing when you’re

Jeanne Phillips
DEAR ABBY: I am 21, but look a few
years younger than my age. I recently under¬
went a procedure at my orthodontist’s office
that turned out to be more painful than expect¬
ed. It lasted almost an hour, and one of the
professionals seemed to think it would be
helpful to talk "baby talk" to me for the entire
duration. Being talked to like that, in addition
to the pain I was experiencing, was extremely
irritating.
A few of my friends have told me that they
have also been treated this way by medical
professionals. What would be a polite way tc
tell someone to just shut up with the baby
talk?
— IRRITATED ADULT IN BOSTON
DEAR IRRITATED ADULT: You shoulc
not tell the person to "shut up with the bab>
talk.” Your message will come across strongei
if you tell the person — once the procedure h
finished — that being spoken to like a chile
was patronizing, and in the future you woulc
prefer to be spoken to like the adult you are.
Horoscopes by Holiday
as good at multitasking as you
usually are. You'll be more
productive when you slow
down and hone in on the sin¬
gle most important endeavor.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You don't have to take formal
lessons to learn a lot. You pick
up bits and pieces practically
by osmosis, and before you
know it, you're moving right
along with those in the know.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22),
You're not always the gregari¬
ous extrovert others have
come to expect. You're deep,
too, and there's a private side
of you. Those who think they
know you will not be able to
predict what you'll do today.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Things are picking up. You
find a way to feel exhilarated
over the same work that once
made you feel tired and
cranky. The quality of your
thoughts keeps improving.
You are empowered.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
As cumbersome as a burden
seems now, you have the abili¬
ty to handle 10 times more.
Prove your grace. The key is
in not giving it too much
attention, and marching on
like there's nothing on your
back.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). Alert the media -- you're
about to spin a new incarna¬
tion of yourself. This is one
you can't plan out too careful¬
ly. Instead, you see a need and
change yourself ever so slight¬
ly to fill it.
PAGE 5A
harassment, and you want her tc
put a stop to it. Tell your co-work¬
ers that while you like them, yoi
are straight, and if they don’t stop
hitting on you, you will report it tc
your boss. And last, instead ol
socializing with these people aftei
work, join a gym or sign up for £
class where you will meet new peo¬
ple and develop new relationships.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22
Dec. 21). When you know
what you want, you're a fire¬
cracker. You’re in emotional
control and unafraid of taking
things to a heightened level of
excitement. Passion builds to a
three-alarm fervor tonight.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). As mountain climbers
would attest, the climbers
around you will determine the
height you are able to achieve.
You only win if everybody
wins. It's worth it to pay the
best Sherpa you can find to
accompany you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). The sacrifices you make
may seem to go unnoticed.
Acts of selflessness are never
a wasted effort. However, if
you withdraw for a day, you
might find that you are better
appreciated tomorrow.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You hunger to delight your
eyes, tantalize your sense of
touch and open your ears for
sparkling music to pour in.
Every day is a sensual extrav¬
aganza when you're living in
the moment.
