DEAR ABBY: My sister likes a childhood friend of ours and is hiding the fact that they are together.
My stepson, who is 24, has Asperger’s syndrome. He is high functioning, very intelligent and has a great work ethic. He still lives at home, and I have noticed that he “must” touch his mother every day. There are times he stands behind her and strokes her hair and rubs her neck and shoulders. I think it’s odd and, to be honest, it kind of bothers me. It’s not a jealousy thing, it just strikes me as creepy.
I don’t think a 24-year-old should be caressing his mother that way. She doesn’t think it’s wrong, and when I mentioned it to her, she became offended. I know I may be wrong, and I try to understand that it may be part of his Asperger’s. Am I off base? Help me understand. — CREEPED OUT IN INDIANAWhat you are describing isn’t scandalous. It could simply be gestures of affection. Because your wife isn’t bothered by it, I suggest you calm down and stop reading more into it than there may be.

Oktoberfest kicks off: How brewer Paulaner became one of the few beers servedSaturday marks the 188th Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany, drawing people from all over the world. Paulaner USA CEO Steve Hauser joins Yahoo Finance’s Rachelle Akuffo to give us a taste of Oktoberfest. Palauner brewery and their sister brewery Hacker-Pschorr 's products will be served at the festival. In terms of sales outside of Oktoberfest for the business, Hauser notes that the “beer market is a little bit soft”, but that hasn’t impacted their company as much because consumers are “reengaging with classic beers” without having to spend as much money as they would on other luxuries.
