In today's Ask Amy column, Amy Dickinson responds to a mother who wants to be done watching a certain TV show.
A silly question, perhaps, but I’m looking for how to respond to my daughter, who absolutely loves a certain very long-running medical TV series .
My daughter lives in another city and will often start our weekly phone conversations by wanting to talk about the show. Even though I consider it torture, I’ve been forcing myself to watch every week in order to keep up with it. But, Amy, life is too short.– Mortified MomLiberate yourself from watching, but stay connected with your daughter by asking for her “recap.” Let her tell you who is sleeping with who, who operated on what, and which character died this week as the result of a contract negotiation with the network.
