Dear Ann Landers,
s it all right for a father to have sex with his daughter if both are consenting adults? I am 37, and my daughter, "Jean," is 20. My wife passed away two years ago. After she became ill, Jean assumed all the household responsibilities, and we became very close. We five here, just the two of us, and she is a wonderful cook and housekeeper. We have the same likes and dislikes and are compatible in every way. Jean is pretty and I am still a young man. Rather than move out of a home that she loves and look for a husband (and risk getting AIDS), Jean says she wants to stay with me. We have a wonderful time to-gether. She hasn't dated in several months because she would prefer to be with me more than any of the young men she knows. I love her company and am not interested in anyone else. Can a man legally marry his daughter? Please do not publish my name as it is a very controversial subject and I don't want to be ha-rassed. P.S. Does the Old Testament say anything about this? -Mr.X

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?
