Dear LFTP: the 80/50 supper date and the distracted-driving husband
- Would it be okay for an 80-year-old man to take a 50-year-old woman to supper?
- How can I get through to my husband about his distracted driving?
Two more Dear LFTP letters. First: may an 80-year-old man take a 50-year-old woman from church to supper? The hosts say yes, absolutely, with the Secular answer adding 'only if she says yes.' Second: a wife whose husband drives with his knees while shaving, drinking coffee, brushing his teeth, and talking on the cell phone - 'those that can do.' The hosts riff on the man's multitasking legend status, then admit the distracted-driving danger and echo the Secular answer: take the keys, or arrange other transportation.
