Dear Gregory:

Marrying another woman so that she will help you with Christopher Agoth is a good idea only if

– she is a good woman, a persistently calm woman (not one with an anger problem).

– none of her family members will interfere with how you want your son (and yourself) to be treated.

– you truly like and respect her, and she likes you respects you back

– she will be a good mother to your son, never abuse him (or you!), and treat your son as well as she treats children she gives birth to.
