In today's Miss Manners column, advice columnist Judith Martin tells a reader how to react to an unexpected pregnancy. You can send your questions to Miss Manners through her email, [email protected] MISS MANNERS: Several months ago, my brother and his wife, who have a 10-month-old baby, found out that they are pregnant again. This news was not met with nearly as much joy as the news of the first child.
My mother has told me that if a baby shower is thrown for them by my sister-in-law’s family , she would like to give them a pack of condoms! I was shocked -- most of the shock arising from the fact that the idea originated from my usually puritanical mother. I suggested that perhaps, instead of presenting this “gift” in front of all my sister-in-law’s friends, it be given privately as a “welcome home from the hospital” present once the baby is born. I would value your opinion on this matter.
