Dear Tamara:
I just found out that my father has a daughter with another woman. Apparently he had an affair on my mother shortly after they were married. The woman contacted my father and now wants to have a relationship with him after all of these years. I also found out that my mother and two siblings already knew about this girl and no one bothered to tell me. Yes I am the baby of the family, but I think I had as much right as everyone else to know the truth. I haven’t talked to my parents or my siblings since they broke the news to me and to tell the truth, I don’t think I am going to any time soon. If they could lie to me all these years about having a half-sister, what else could they be keeping from me? Furthermore, I am angry at my father for betraying my mother. I can’t believe she even stayed with him all of these years!

The jobless rate for older workers isn’t as high as it is for the overall U.S. workforce. But older workers who do lose their jobs tend to remain jobless much longer than their younger counterparts-if they’re able to find work at all.
