Dear Abby,
I am about to marry the girl of my dreams. We have been seeing each other for months now, and I think it is time that she met the family.
My mother started drinking heavily after my father deserted the Marines and joined a Communist country's military.
My baby sister is a prostitute and has what we call a "social disease." My younger brother is a Republican who voted twice for Reagan.
My older brother and one cousin are in the local jail for embezzlement and my grandparents suffer from dementia and alzheimers....
My question is, should I tell my girl, whom I plan to marry, about my brother the Republican?
