I don’t have a lock on common sense, but I am aware that the lack of it in others keeps this column entertaining, writes Amy Dickinson.
Dear Amy: My husband and I lost our only son, who was 27 and died by suicide.
I understand that we live in a grief-illiterate society, and that people don’t know what to say, but this behavior was bizarre, hurtful, insensitive, and another stunning blow to our loss process. Send it. Or don’t send it. You likely understand that nothing you say will affect their perspective or behavior. But standing up on behalf of yourself and your son’s memory might be a way for you to reclaim an experience of parenting that you need to have.
My parents’ marriage is now under heavy strain, but both have told me they would be “mortified to air their dirty laundry to a total stranger.”– Frustrated Helper
