Carol Perkins: Falling Out Previous Column: Away They Go By Carol Perkins A falling out. Families have them; friends do, too. Family falling outs are usually over money, caring for aging parents, or estates. Friends are usually about other friends and gossip.

Some good people we know have allowed people they don't know, will never know and who will never visit them in the hospital, send a card, call to ask about family, or know their grandma's name to cause a rift in relationships. These propaganda pushers (on both sides) have caused an end to friendly debates. I was talking about this with a relative who lives in Louisville. He recounted a recent conversation with a lifelong friend.
