grandparents grand npl → grands-parents mpl grandparents grand npl , grandchildren, and friends. Unlike the majority of comic strips, in which the family (and its children!) never age and remain bizarrely the same from year to year, "For Better or For Worse" embraces the realism of advancing years and the toll that changes in the seasons have on life. In Never Wink at a Worried Woman, Elly and John are carefully beginning to think about retirement, while Elizabeth approaches adulthood, Micheal and Deanna try to balance the demands of being new parents, and baby Meredith is bursting with curiosity about the world around her while Grandpa Jim strives to maintain his dignity despite the toll of age. The warm, soulful humor of the comic retains a fresh, empathic em·path·ic adj. Of, relating to, or characterized by empathy. Adj. 1. empathic - showing empathy or ready comprehension of others' states; "a sensitive and empathetic school counselor" empathetic charm, all needed more desperately than ever in today's era of sarcasm, shallowness and sound bites. Highly recommended. |
