Cut out in-law correspondence

DEAR MISS MANNERS — FH be moving soon and
would like some input on how to handle long-distance cor-

and that, since it is his family, not
mine, he should take over the re-
sponsibility?
GENTLE READER — It has
always seeme_ reasonable to Miss
Manners that people should write
their own letters to their own
parents, and rather odd to have
this job removed by the convention
of considering all social let-
ter-writing to be the wife’s duty.
She will therefore join you in
wishing good riddance to such a

ances about how the family treats
you. Their being his parents is
reason enough.

The second is that if, in fact, he
does not perform this duty, you
generously undertake to send them
major family news. Miss Manners
is not asking for regular letter-
writing — just letting them know
when someone in your household
has been promoted, has a more
than routine illness or is having a
baby.
