A reader asks Abby the best way to support their friend.
My best friend, “Juliet,” recently lost her months-old baby under tragic circumstances. After several months, she is now pregnant again. Abby, I’m worried. She’s in her 30s and wants to live with her mother for an indefinite period after the baby is born. Juliet is still with her husband.
I don’t think this is healthy. It will not only take away from the couple’s independence, but also reduce Juliet’s confidence in being a new mother. We are so close that we call each other soul mates. Should I say something or let her do what she thinks is right? --As concerned as you are about Juliet, let her do what she thinks is right. Having lost her baby “under tragic circumstances,” she needs all the emotional support she can get.
