In today's Miss Manners column, advice columnist Judith Martin responds to a mother tired of unsolicited advice. You can send your questions to Miss Manners through her email, [email protected] MISS MANNERS: I am the mother of two young children: a 2-year-old girl and a 5-month-old boy.
GENTLE READER: It’s not just because this involves your bosom that this is an outrageously intrusive question. It is designed to lead to lectures on the subject -- chastising you if you are not breastfeeding, or probing further if you are. Therefore, it deserves a none-of-your-business reply, such as, “Why? Do they look hungry?” Oh, dear, another snarky comeback.
