Dear Ann Landers,
live with another woman who has a young fe-male child. Yes, we are lesbians and I am not ashamed of it. I am very fond of the little girl and consider myself very nearly a parent because of my relationship with her mother. What I need to know is what I should call this child when I refer to her in conversations? I don't like to say, "She is the daughter of my room-mate," because she is much more than that. I am proud of the fact that she is the daughter of the woman I love and is as dear to me as if she were my own child. Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated. NO CLOSETS FOR US

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
