Dear Abby is written by
Abigail Van Buren,

For everything you need
Dear Abby
peers is important because it
provides debate and socializa-
tion.
As to what she should be
doing at home besides filling
in the pages of coloring books,
consider activities she did
in the past such as knitting,
chess, and watching sports or
soap operas if she enjoys them.

DEAR ABBY: With all
of the racial tensions going
on, and an attack on the local
police force, there doesn’t
seem to be much escape. My
husband thinks that watching
the news is my “duty,” and I
have been doing it to the point
of having anxiety attacks. Is it
Last year, I gave her some
simple coloring books and
crayons, and she did enjoy
that, but she has told me she
is kind of tired of coloring.
She has adamantly insisted
she doesn’t want crosswords
or word search books. Do you
have any suggestions? — ALL
THOUGHT OUT IN CALI-
FORNIA
DEAR ALL THOUGHT
OUT: Yes, I do. It is very
important for your mother’s
mental health that she exer-
cise as many functions of her
brain as possible. She should
not be encouraged to spend
all of her time at home. A
senior center can help to give
her structure and physical and
mental stimulation. In her
generation, connection with
TACT: Whether what Marla
is doing is rude would depend
upon why she feels compelled
to fact-check during a conver-
sation. If she does it as a form
of one-upmanship, it’s rude.
If that’s not the reason, she
may do it out of insecurity or
a desire to participate in the
conversation.
That said, because you
don’t trust your brother or his
lady friend, then it is only logi-
cal that you would avoid them
as much as possible.

Smartphone fact-checking is a conversational irritant
DEAR ABBY: How should
I respond to someone who
keeps her smartphone on and
“fact-checks” anything that is
mentioned in a group conver-
sation? She’s my brother’s girl-
friend, “Marla,” and she’s not a
teenager. She’s in her late 40s.
I consider it rude. She invari-
ably interjects a comment to
confirm or dispute whatever
has been said by saying, “Well,
according to ...”
I admit I don’t care for
Marla for various reasons.
However, she is perfect for
my brother. To put it bluntly,
I don’t trust either of them. I
try to limit contact with them
because I feel so strongly. Am
I right, or am I overreacting?
