Dear Abby: My mom changed our family vacation date and didn't tell me
DEAR ABBY: Two years ago, my mom invited all of my family on an international trip during the month of October. One year ago, my sister called me asking if I could 'cover some things' for her. When I agreed and asked why, she said she and our parents were going on the international trip four months early. I was shocked. No one had said the departure date was being moved up. When I asked my other sister about it, she was also still under the impression we were going in October. When I brought it up to my mom, she got very defensive and said we were all invited to come. No, we were not! The plans changed, and only one sister and her family were included. They are on the trip now, and I don't want any part of it. They are posting pictures to our family group chat, and I have decided not to look at them. I'm not sure how to move forward from here. I'm sad and frustrated over this, while they are pretending everything is fine. — LEFT BEHIND IN COLORADO DEAR LEFT: When your mother and sister return from that trip, there needs to be a frank 'family discussion' about what went wrong and why neither felt it was necessary to inform you that you and your other sister were excluded and why. Pretending something that happened never happened never works out, and if it isn't repaired, the fallout can be long-lasting. DEAR ABBY: My son is a loving husband, father, and son. He coaches his 12-year-old son, my grandson, in various sports and sometimes is just a spectator. I'm worried because he often berates his son's playing ability. He has yelled at him during and after games, whether he is coaching or not. He yelled and screamed at him in front of everyone and later at home. I have told my son, to no avail, that it's OK to give constructive criticism but without the yelling. I have also told him how it crushes my grandson each time he does this. My daughter-in-law is also at a loss for how to change his behavior. My husband coached my son in sports when he was young, and he was hard on him, too. I love my family dearly, but I don't know what to do in this situation. Abby, what do you think we should do? — 'HEARTACHING' GRANDMA IN NEW JERSEY DEAR GRANDMA: Your son may be a loving husband, but he could use some coaching as a father. Someone should point out to him that when a parent bullies a child about his poor athletic performance, it rarely produces a positive result. It makes him lose interest in the sport and damages the youth's self-esteem, and the effects can sometimes last a lifetime. After your grandson has had enough of the verbal abuse, don't be shocked if he drops out of the sport. Your son should have learned from the terrible example his own father set that this kind of 'coaching' usually doesn't produce the desired result. He should take out his aggression elsewhere.

Flight passengers complain about maskless coughing on board as summer travel heats up
Print Close By Ashley DiMella Published June 05, 2025 As summer travel kicks off, many Americans are taking to the skies to reach their destination. One traveler is sounding off about the passing around of summer sicknesses, calling out "sick people" with "no masks" — and igniting plenty of debate and input from others. Posted in the "r/delta" forum on Reddit, the message reads, "Currently on a plane, and one of the guys in the row behind me is absolutely hacking up a lung with no mask." MAJOR AIRLINE HOLDING FLIGHTS TO ACCOMMODATE FLYERS WITH CONNECTIONS "I've had this happen quite often recently. These people are totally inconsiderate scummy individuals. We are all in super-close quarters on flights — just wear a freaking mask," the user writes. Redditors took to the comments section to discuss the issue of flight passengers wearing masks on board. "I have lung disease and occasionally I get a coughing fit. I'm not sick or contagious. Could be the case here," suggested one user. Another user wrote, "You're never going to get the U.S. to adopt a mindset that widely encompasses masks. You just aren't. And the thing is, prior to 2020 you would likely not have thought of masking for someone coughing either."

"I don't trust others to have common sense." One user said, "I carry a mask and wash my hands before (and after) I use the bathroom. I don't trust others to have common sense or minimal decency." Another person said, "If you go out in public, there will be germs. Accept it. Move on. Protect yourself however you wish. Or stay home."

Recirculated air passes through high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters that capture 99.97% of particles such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi ≥0.3 µm in diameter, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

"Close proximity of passengers increases the risk of person-to-person airborne spread before contaminated air can be removed from the breathing zone and exhausted or filtered," the CDC notes. Wearing a mask can be especially helpful during the boarding and deplaning process. Print Close URL
