I have written about this subject before. A new event occurred that I found so unnerving that I had to write about it again.   My step-son recently got engaged.  Right after the engagement, on that Saturday night, both immediate families met for dinner. The next day, Sunday, my step-son planned a party at a local pub for their entire families and their friends.
