This week’s Dear Abby column addresses a teacher’s frustration with parents who text through school conferences, a father navigating a rent dispute with his adult children, and a couple asking their daughters to help pay for a family vacation.
The only connection to Missouri is that letters to the column are mailed to a P.O. Box in Kansas City, Missouri, where the syndicate processes reader submissions. The advice itself concerns readers writing in from unspecified locations and New York, with no indication any of the situations occurred in Missouri or involve Missouri policy, institutions, or public figures.
Because the source material contains no substantive Missouri news content, there is not enough here to produce a genuine article for a Missouri-focused readership.
