Tough Talk: Sepember 1, 2023

Tough Talk,

I am a God fearing and decent person with two adult children.  I have a rule and that is I do not allow my adult children to have their girlfriends stay overnight, even if one will sleep in the attic or garage.  Do you think this is too harsh or consistent with my values?  (Austin, Maine)

Austy,

How the hell would I know?  The fact is if they want to knock boots, they’ll figure out a way to do it.  Rule or no rule.  Why even bother with such errant nonsense?
