Grandpa Resists Getting Dressed for Company
Dear Abby | February 1st, 2026 | Letter 2 of 2
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are in our 60s. When we are at home, just the two of us, he likes to wear just his underwear around the house, whether it's watching TV or eating dinner. I have accepted it all these years and never made an issue of it. When our granddaughter visited us at the age of 1, he wore shorts at my request but no shirt. She's now coming to stay with us at age 2 1/2. Don't you think he should wear a shirt and shorts when she visits? He values your opinion. -- MR. INFORMAL'S WIFE.
DEAR WIFE: Since your husband values my opinion, please tell him I said that unless it's 95 degrees when your granddaughter visits, the appropriate thing to do would be to wear shorts and a shirt during your grandchild's visit.
