Amy,
My 16 year old son has been coming home, after school, with his girlfriend to our house and, I believe, having sex. They go up to his room, lock the door and it gets very quiet in there. I don’t want my son having sex at all, let alone in my house, but if they’re going to do it: Is it better for him and his girlfriend to have sex under my roof as opposed to doing it in a car seat or at some party?
Thanks,
Dana
Naked Neighbor

Amy,
A young female neighbor recently installed a new bathroom window that has no coverings or frosting. Our kitchen window looks directly into it, and it seems the window happens to be in the tub/shower. So every time she soaps up, there she is!. We find ourselves having to close our blinds and look the other way most nights. Now this may seem too good to be true for some, but we find it uncomfortable, as we have to be neighborly. I'm also embarrassed for her: If it were me, I'd be mortified. I've tried flashing kitchen lights to see if she gets the message, but no change. Should we leave a note in her mailbox politely suggesting she replace her window or get a covering, or should we just suck it up?
Thanks, Karen

Ask Amy: Moose and wife can't agree on birthday celebration

Dear Ask Amy,
Moose’s birthday is on July 1st, and as you know I am expecting our first child which is due on July 17th. When I asked about any birthday plans that he might want, he stated that a trip to a water park might be cool. Given that this timeframe would be nearing my due date, the thought of getting into a bathing suit, kids splashing, peeing in the water, does not appeal to me what so ever. My husband says it his birthday and we should do whatever he wants, which I would wholeheartedly agree with if I were not so close to giving birth. His argument was that there are nice wading pools there for me to participate in. You’ve been 9 months pregnant before, and obviously a man has no understanding of that, however, am I being selfish here? Should I give in to hauling my “Prego-saurus” butt to the water park and suck it up and deal with it since it is HIS birthday or should he consider other alternatives for his birthday extravaganza?
Thanks, Mrs. Moose
Ask Amy: My Friend's become p-whipped

Dear Amy,
I'm not sure if this is really an ask Amy, but we'll try anyways. A couple friends and I have been noticing changes in one of our friends. These changes come of course after he got his new girlfriend. We feel bad for saying it, but we miss the old version of him. He's happy, and he and his new lady seem to be happy, but he is a different person, and she seems to have him wrapped around her little finger. Should we feel bad that we miss the old version of him, and will we ever see our real friend again instead of the bizzaro world version of him, or is he getting laid and we are SOL until that river runs dry? Thanks for your time, Clint in ankeny

Ask Amy: RAGBRAI kid friendly?

Dear Amy,
I'm new to the state of Iowa, I moved here about 6 months ago, and I love the show. I'm writing to you because I've seen, and heard some stuff about RAGBRAI. My son and I both love bicycling, and I thought this might be a good way to spend some time together this summer in a new place. However, like I said, I've seen and heard some things about ragbrai, and I'm not for sure if it's a good idea or not. What do you think? Good time for father and son, or will the kid learn some things an 11 year old shouldn't learn just yet?
Thanks for your help,
Dave in Ankeny

Dear Amy,
'Tis the wedding season and I do love a good party however, I have been invited to a wedding where I really don’t know the couple very well. Normally I’m all about giving kick ass gifts but in this situation, since I don’t know them very well I don’t know how much to spend. I’m not attending the wedding but miss manners says that I need to send a gift since I was invited. What ya got to say about this?

Bailing on a wedding

Dear Amy,
I'm in a bit of a pinch, I'm supposed to go to a wedding later this summer and I really don't want to. The wedding is that of a person who use to be a closer friend, but not as much anymore, and largely because of the man she is marrying. In talking to our other mutal friends, I'm not the only one that is feeling like this. So, do I be a good friend, shut my mouth, go to a wedding I really don't support and pray it works out, or do I just not go, and see what happens?
