Dear Ann Landers,
hat do you think of a 30-year-old father who, on his son's second birthday, pushes his son's face into the birth-day cake while 20 people are watching? Then, with a big grin, the father proceeds to videotape his child's stunned response and the tears that follow. For several weeks, the little boy knew that his birthday was coming. He kept repeating words like "birthday" and "two," while holding up two little fingers. He had looked forward to the party with such joy, and to have it end like that was heartbreaking. I was so upset that I left without saying goodbye. I am the child's grandmother. What would you have done? -Milwaukee Journal Reader

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, like balloons. Well, the outgoing president made a gushy speech and closed with: “It is an honor for me to present you with this corsage as a token of our esteem and affection.” She then proceeded to pin the corsage on Auntie. Bang! went the balloon, and half of her dimensions changed right there in front of two thousand people. Naturally this was the highlight of the convention. People still laugh about it fifteen years later.-No Town For Gosh Sakes
