The article features a letter from a mother distressed over her daughter's refusal to accept an apology regarding a private conversation about family dynamics. The parents felt hurt by the daughter's absence from their 50th wedding anniversary celebration after moving out of state. Despite attempts to communicate and apologize, the daughter remains unresponsive, and the mother seeks advice. Dear Abby suggests that the daughter may be avoiding accountability for her actions and advises the mother to continue sending tokens of goodwill, indicating that reconciliation is ultimately the daughter's responsibility.
Your daughter knows she was wrong not to come to your anniversary celebration, and she also knows how upset you were about it because she has seen it on her doorbell camera.
I agree with your husband. Remember the adage, 'The best defense is a good offense'? Your daughter knows she was wrong... and she's avoiding the issue.
