...Dynasty (Monica's favorite soap opera)? Monica and her mom aren't simply close, as most stories posit; instead, they're gal pals, dieting together since Monica was a chubby eight-year-old, moving in as roommates after the divorce, swapping clothes and dating strategies. Were my daughter to tell me she was having an affair with an older man, I would do everything I could to stop it (Do you know how many nurses think the heart surgeon is really in love with them?

Starr's team grilled Lewis in grand jury hearings, but they were halted after Lewis nearly...

Among the most dangerous such drugs are anabolic steroids, which are versions of the male hormone testosterone. And there are clues you should look for to see whether your daughter might be using these drugs...
