DEAR ABBY: I’ve been the stepfather of two girls for 18 years. They are 22 and 24 now. ...

DEAR ABBY: I’ve been the stepfather of two girls for 18 years. They are 22 and 24 now. My wife and her ex-husband adopted them at birth. When they were 2 and 4, he had an affair and left them for a woman who had two children.

DEAR HURT: You have my sympathy. This may have happened because their mother never explained to them that the person who left them failed to fulfill the father role he had promised, and the man who raised them -- you -- IS their dad. She also failed to insist they treat you with the respect you deserved. If there is blame to be laid, I blame her for this, not them.DEAR ABBY: I am writing regarding my husband’s obituary. He died suddenly a year ago.

Yesterday, she used the word “irregardless” again when we were talking. Should I correct her again, or let it go? This situation is complicated by the fact that I have asked her to stop constantly correcting me, although her corrections don’t usually involve grammar or word usage. -- UNSURE IN FLORIDA
