),567 5($' NATIONWIDE - Seventy is the new 50, but some seniors feel like they are 40 years old again, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens. For one thing, people are not only living longer these days, they’re living healthier, more active lives, and so the concept of retirement is changing. Many older Americans need to continue working past the traditional retirement age of 65 to make ends meet. Others want to stay on the job because it provides them with a sense of contentment; working makes them feel that they have purpose, says AMAC. The U.S. Census Bureau says that in 1984 about 15 percent of the workforce was 65 years of age or older, and that in 2014 the labor participation rate of men and women over 65 had grown to nearly 27 percent. - from the Association of Mature American Citizens, amac.us ••• STATEWIDE - $ QRQSURĂ€W WKDW KHOSV YLFWLPV RI GRPHVWLF YLROHQFH LV ODXQFKLQJ D QHZ SURJUDP WR SUHYHQW WHHQDJH GDWLQJ YLROHQFH According to Patti Seeger, director of the group End Domestic Abuse Wisconsin, nationally 1.5 million high school age teens are victims of dating violence every year, most of them girls. “We know from research that girls and young women between the ages 16 and 24 experience the highest rate of intimate partner violence — almost triple the national average,â€? said Seeger. Thanks to a $30,000 grant from Verizon Wireless, the group has planned a three-pronged approach to prevent that violence.

The second two prongs both involve education. Seeger said that the majority of adult perpetrators were abused as children, so preventing violence among teens is key to reducing adult domestic violence as well. That means creating anti-dating-violence programs run by teens and passing new legislation. “The most effective model of prevention is that teens hear the message early and often, so (we) hope to have legislation introduced that will build violence prevention into the existing curriculum,â€? said Seeger. One such bill was introduced last year by state Rep. Melissa Sargent, D-Madison, but it failed to make it out of committee. - Gilman Halstad, Wisconsin Public Radio

'HDO VWUXFN IRU XQUHGDFWHG UHFRUG 'DQLHOOH + 0RH _ Staff writer MADISON - Media groups and local government associations have reached an interim agreement regarding the policy of redacting state law enforcement records. Members or clients of government associations are being advised that law enforcement records containing personal information should be released unredacted, but only under certain conditions. The agreement is the result of talks between government associations like the League of Wisconsin Municipalities and media organizations like the Wisconsin Newspaper Association. Locally, the Washburn County Sheriff’s Department ended their redaction policy in April, about a year after they began redacting personal information from accident re-

ports. The practice of records redaction began on an interpretation of the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act stemming from a parking ticket left on the driver’s vehicle in Palatine, Ill. The case, brought against the city by the driver, found that the drivers privacy was compromised when his name, address and date of birth were on the ticket and left in view of the public. The DPPA was made law in 1997 and prohibits the release of personal identifying information with some exceptions. The exceptions of motor vehicle or public safety have long been used by the media as legitimate and necessary use of the information. Personal information includes an individual’s name, address and phone number as listed on a motor vehicle re-

SRUW RU WUDIĂ€F FLWDWLRQ The Palatine ruling remains in effect after the Supreme Court denied hearing the case in June 2013. During that time municipalities saw redaction of identifying information as a way around a potential lawsuit. An appellate court is currently hearing a case that will supply the media and local governments with direction, but that decision could be a year away. This new agreement for obtaining unredacted documents is contingent upon the requester completing a form that states the use of the information is related to public safety, one of the exceptions listed in the DPPA for use of personal information. The Wisconsin Newspaper Association and its legal representatives

believe the form is more comprehensive than necessary, stating, “It is, nonetheless, a worthwhile compromise, pending the issuance of a binding appellate court’s decision favoring media access.� The form allows local governments basic information from requesters including their name, the purpose of their request and the DPPA exception allowing them access. “Routine redaction of all personal information from law enforcement agency records, without regard for where the information comes from, is an overboard response and may violate Wisconsin’s public records law,� wrote the League of Wisconsin Municipalities in a document providing information about the agreement.

board added a section about the Ice Age Trail to the Polk County Outdoor Recreation Plan 2014 – 2019 before approving the plan. The board then settled into the one item of contention for the evening, a resolution to end compensation for the supervisors when they attend meetings of lake district boards as the county’s representative. The resolution to Disallow Claims for Compensation was submitted by supervisors Josh Hallberg and Kim O’Connell. The resolution said that it is in the county’s interest to promote the autonomy of the 15 lake districts, and that supervisors would be eligible for compensation from the lake districts themselves if those districts paid their board members. Hallberg said he talked to his constituents about the issue and heard them ask why the supervisors should get $100 per lake district meeting from the county when the other district board members were serving with less or no compensation.

Ken Sample questioned the value of paying the supervisors more than the resident members of the district boards receive. He added that the county has been looking for ways to cut county expenses and said, “We should walk the walk and take less pay.â€? Sample said there is no logical premise for using levy dollars to pay for lake district expenses when the districts have their own resources and ability to pay. “They don’t get paid so I should not be paid,â€? Dean Johansen said, referring to the other members of the lake district board he sits on. “I think this is a voluntary duty.â€? The discussion against the resolution was largely about procedural issues including whether the board could change the compensation of its members during WKHLU WHUPV RI RIĂ€FH -HII )XJH WKH FRXQty’s corporation counsel, said the resolution did not change the compensation, it just denied paying it. The board voted on motions to table the resolution and to support a ruling of the board chair on the issue. That included a debate on when a resolution could be tabled.

During the recorded conversation, Holmstrom allegedly called Ward and offered to assist as the getaway driver. Ward reportedly wanted out of an alleged abusive relationship, but she didn’t want to lose her house in the process. Both Ward and Holmstrom remain in custody.

Architect Craig Selander presented a feasibility report to the board on adapting classroom space at the Grantsburg Middle 6FKRRO IRU L)RUZDUG RIĂ€FH VSDFH OHDGLQJ to a lengthy discussion by the board, the administration and the school principals. Selander told the board that partitioning the middle school classroom with panels to the ceiling would require separate ductwork to ventilate each of the creDWHG RIĂ€FH VSDFHV “Meeting privacy needs is important,â€? iForward Principal Billy Beesley told the board. When discussing using 6- to 7-foot partial walls, Beesley commented while that wouldn’t give as much privacy, it would be more than what the staff had now. Selander also noted no air conditioning to the middle school space could be added. Board President David Ahlquist asked middle school Principal Bill Morrin what his feelings were about iForward moving into space at his school. “We have the space,â€? voiced Morrin. “We’ve moved things around and we are ready.â€? While Morrin said he was on board with the iForward staff moving in, he said he was looking at the space usage being temporary and at some point wanted to able to change the area back to classrooms. “We want to make sure it isn’t long term and whatever remodeling is done can be dismantled,â€? said Morrin. “There’s a burden on each school taking space from them,â€? commented Ahlquist. ´0\ IHHOLQJ RI ODWH VKRUW UDQJH LV Ă€QGLQJ space in one or more of our schools and ORQJ WHUP Ă€QGLQJ D SODFH RII FDPSXV IRU iForward.

Burgin continued. “An immediate solution and decision is needed for this year. What can we do now, and longterm, where do you want the school to be.â€? “iForward is showing it’s viable and is going to continue and we should go forward,â€? said Ahlquist. Board member Russ Erickson stated he would like to see all of iForward located in the high school. Currently the school is using some space there and also at the elementary school. “We are short on space. We’ve really invested in Response to Intervention/Instruction staff,â€? said high school Principal Josh Watt. “We served over 100 students last year in the RTI program. For student success the RTI program is huge. The program is never going away and our staff has been working in a small space. With new requirements and assessments we are really going to need the space.â€? Watt also told the board Mr. Henderson would be teaching a business program, which would be great for the community and he would also need space. Another option for iForward, which Selander explored at the board’s request, was renting and remodeling the old Bumper to Bumper building located on the VDPH VWUHHW DV 6HODQGHU¡V RIĂ€FH EXLOGLQJ Selander said the Bumper to Bumper building would be easier to renovate than the Boyd Hardware building downtown, which was yet another possibility presented for the board to consider by Ted Gerber of Community Bank. Board member Cindy Jensen said remodeling and renting the Boyd building

could be a win/win situation by providing space for iForward and giving the downtown a much-needed jump start. Jensen recalled the vision of Grantsburg resident MaryAnn Erickson for renovating and using the old high school building. Her vision was realized, with the structure remodeled and now housing WKH *UDQWVEXUJ 9LOODJH 2IĂ€FHV DQG 3XEOLF Library. “I hate to see us putting up a pole shed while letting existing buildings rot,â€? she said. The district would be entering into a rental agreement for the Bumper to Bumper building while the Boyd building option could require the district to purchase the property. “We want to make Grantsburg the best place we can to attract more businesses. We do have a vested interest in the downtown to help the community grow, be attractive, and bring in more families. I would like to give back to the community and assist in improving the downtown, HVSHFLDOO\ VLQFH L)RUZDUG QHHGV RIĂ€FHV Âľ said Burgin, who went on to state she was not in favor of buying and renovating space. “I support iForward moving into the GRZQWRZQ RIĂ€FH VSDFH EXW SUHIHU WKDW the bank purchase the Boyd building and renovate it,â€? said Burgin. “iForward can then rent the space.

&KDQJHV SURSRVHG DW ODVW ]RQLQJ RUGLQDQFH KHDULQJ New issues include nondwelling structures and revision period *UHJJ :HVWLJDUG _ Staff writer DRESSER – Some changes were proposed and new issues raised at the last of three public hearings on the proposed Polk County Zoning Ordinance Monday, Aug. 18, at the Dresser Community Center. About 50 residents attended the hearing, with 19 people testifying. The 71-page draft ordinance and proposed amendments and changes will now go to the county board’s conservation committee for review and possible revision before going to the county board for adoption. Several of the comments related to the allowed uses of lots without homes. A

town board member suggested a revision plan for the ordinance. Many of the 19 speakers expressed their support for the draft version. The proposed ordinance states that no accessory structures will be allowed on lots without dwellings. That would preclude building a storage shed, for instance, on a lot used for seasonal activities. Brad Olson and Chris Schneider both spoke against this regulation. Olson said that this restriction does not exist now and should not be added. Schneider said that he should have the right to build a pole barn on a piece of property, adding that farmers are being allowed to build nondwelling structures. Relating to that issue is the regulation of the use of travel trailers and campers on undeveloped lots. The new regulations would allow these units for 14 out of every

60 days without a permit and says that an annual seasonal permit would cost $500 and would only be issued if the lot has an approved sanitary system. Jane Cooper said that her family owns a recreational property for family camping, using a tent trailer. She said the family never intends to build on the lot but would need to invest from $5,000 to $10,000 to install the required sanitary system. Cooper said her family takes pride in its property and has no intention of dumping wastewater. The travel trailer regulation would limit use to the period between May 15 and Sept. 15. Olson suggested extending the period to Dec. 1 to get users through the hunting season. Olson, who was a member of the citizens advisory group, presented several RWKHU VSHFLĂ€F FKDQJHV +H VDLG WKH ZRUG aesthetic, used in the purpose statement,

He said that business loading docks could be screened from neighbors but don’t need to be screened from other public view. Olson said that all lake properties should have the same setback, with Class 1 lakes treated the same as Class 2 and 3 lakes. And he said that the ordinance should be written so that eight out of 10 people can understand it. Mike Wallis, a member of the Osceola Town Board, asked that a mandatory revision period be added to the ordinance, requiring a chance for the towns to suggest revisions at set periods. Otherwise, he said, the towns could be tied to the ordinance for 20 to 30 years.

half the project’s cost, the village board will need to use other funds as well. The board has until the end of the year to decide what other funds will be used to match the grant money and exactly what sewer upgrades will be tackled with the money. Some of the sewer upgrades being considered are rehabilitating three of the four lift stations, lining sewer pipes,

manhole rehab and bringing electricity to the sewer ponds. Construction is expected in 2015.

%RDUG WDNHV WHFKQLFDO OHDS The Webster Board voted to purchase seven Lenovo computer tablets for all the trustee members at the board meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 13. The cost of the

tablets will be $2,116.22. The purchase is intended to reduce the number of paper copies typically used during a board meeting - copies that are both costly and time consuming to put together prior to each board meeting. At the next meeting, after the tablets are purchased, there will be a tutorial for trustees who do not already use tablets.

)DFLQJ DQRWKHU NH\ IDOO HOHFWLRQ As summer winds down many of us are facing lists dealing with back-to-school sales and winterization. Football might be in the back of some minds. But are we ready for some politics? In two months voters will be facing lists of candidates in another key fall election. The Nov. 4 ballot will undoubtedly generate local interest, with races for sheriff in both Burnett and Polk counties. The Burnett County race for sheriff - Frank Taylor versus Ron Wilhelm - is one of three area races with no incumbents on the ballot. Incumbent Burnett County Sheriff Dean Roland has chosen to not seek re-election as has longtime Rep. Bob Jauch of the 25th State Senate District and Erik Severson of the 28th Assembly District. There’s a 300-year old argument that the sheriff position should not be up for election and a related argument that the position surely shouldn’t be tied to political parties. A few places in the U.S. have sheriffs appointed by the governor or the county chair but it’s a trend that obviously hasn’t caught on yet. Back in the day it wasn’t unusual for husbandand-wife teams to share the position. One would serve as undersheriff and one as sheriff. When the sheriff’s term expired, he/she would run for undersheriff and the other for sheriff. That occurred for a good two decades in Polk County. The colorful and strange history of the position shouldn’t obscure its importance. Primarily administrative, the sheriff has to be a natural leader and communicate clearly and often with the public. That’s just one of the critical positions up for election in November. There is the nationally monitored contest between Gov. Walker and challenger Mary Burke and the 7th Congressional showdown between incumbent Sean Duffy and challenger Kelly Westlund. And Wisconsin voters will elect a new attorney general. With resources like Wisconsin Public Radio, columnists Bill Lueders and Matt Pommer, and sites like wispolitics.com and politics1.com, the Leader hopes to use both these pages and our website to get readers into the political spirit and as informed as possible. Please stay tuned. - Gary King

Routine resolutions were passed quickly, with only one split vote on the subject of scheduling next year’s annual meeting. Parent volunteer Terri Hinze recommended that the annual meeting be scheduled in October when more concrete numbers are available and more parents are engaged in school activities. While a few other attendees, including at least one board member, lent their support, the idea was voted down. Hinze also used the opportunity to speak on behalf of concerned parents. “The reason for this school is to educate the kids in an effective, positive manner,� Hinze said. “I would challenge us to put aside any personal agendas.

And despite not having much to go on about the opposing team, Belanger says it’s a welcomed challenge and can actually be good for the players. “I like that for the kids, from the standpoint that I think sometimes we overdo it,â€?

This summer marked over a decade since Bergstrand has been seen, after going for a walk from Milltown in June 2004. Polk County Sheriff Peter Johnson had no new information on Bergstrand’s mysterious disappearance, and in spite of extensive search efforts at the time, no sign of him has ever been found. “We’ve got nothing,â€? Johnson admitted. “Not a thing. It’s a real mystery.â€? It was about 46 degrees and cloudy when Bergstrand left his Milltown residence at about 9 a.m. the morning of June 23, 2004. It would rain hard later that day - hard enough to possibly mask a scent for search dogs. Bergstrand was wearing a green swea-

A layman’s guide to DNA According to the University of North 7H[DV &HQWHU IRU +XPDQ ,GHQWLĂ€FDWLRQ DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the molecule responsible for all inherited genetic traits. There are two types of DNA found in each cell: (with the exception of red blood cells) nuclear DNA and mitochondrial DNA. Nuclear DNA is found in the nucleus portion of the cell and mitochondrial DNA, mtDNA, is found in the cellular organelle called the mitochondria and is inherited only from the mother. Each individual inherits one half of their DNA from their father and the other half from their mother. Each person’s DNA is unique, except for identical twins - who have the same DNA. :KHQ D VXIĂ€FLHQW QXFOHDU '1$ SURĂ€OH from the victim’s remains matches the nuFOHDU '1$ SURĂ€OH IURP D IDPLO\ PHPEHU¡V reference sample, you can be very sure of the identity of the victim. The majority of forensic DNA tests are performed on nuclear DNA. However, simultaneous analysis of mtDNA from a maternal relative may be necessary in RUGHU WR LPSURYH WKH LGHQWLĂ€FDWLRQ SURcess. In cases with limited fragments of materials, such as with hair samples or deteriorated samples, the more specialized mitochondrial DNA testing may be the only option. Such was the case of the Dresser Jane Doe, who later was crossmatched positively to Pearline Roberta Walton of St. Paul, Minn. Walton’s case is unique, however, as she had never been reported missing. It was only because of a national call by the FBI and law enforcement out to people who may have had missing, but unreported, family members that her identity was Ă€QDOO\ FRQĂ€UPHG RYHU WZR GHFDGHV UHmoved from her discovery.

Johnson said. “He could have gone just a little ways from Milltown or far down the trail.â€? Bergstrand’s younger sister, Kathy, said she misses her brother every day, and has numerous memories of her older brother, from swimming in pasture ponds to his playing ball with her son, Lucas. “He was such a good guy, a real sweetheart,â€? she said. “We were best buds growing up! He was so funny and just so fun to be around.â€? She recalls her brother was a strong, muscle-bound and optimistic man in his youth, a National Guard veteran who had fallen on hard times in recent years, as mental health issues had combined with growing alcohol and drug use, as well as a recent battle with testicular cancer prior to his disappearance. “The cancer had spread to his blood,â€? she recalled. “And he was really, really depressed, and could barely walk, and he kept saying he was a burden to everyone.â€?

She noted that Bergstrand had been homeless for a spell as a younger man, and knew how to survive in the woods. She thinks he probably succumbed to the pain of cancer and was seriously depressed, which may have led to that last walk. Milltown Police were originally in charge of the search efforts, but they handed off the case to the Polk County Sheriff’s Department a short time later, and it has since become a national missing person case. “A search was done in the area of his house and along the Gandy Dancer Trail at the time, but no evidence or information as to his whereabouts was found during those searches,â€? Johnson stated. “Since that time several leads and possible sightings were looked into, but none of the information provided a substantive lead.â€?

Authorities held several coordinated searches, and even enlisted dogs and searchers on horse, who scoured the areas along or near the trail, for miles in both directions, with no clues or evidence of his disappearance. The family even enlisted the services of a psychic shortly after he went missing, who said he was “in the waterâ€? somewhere, according to Kathy, who thinks that would mean he was in one of the ponds between Luck and Milltown. “Our honest guess is that he killed himself, either he laid down and died or maybe he went for a last swim,â€? Kathy said bluntly. “He felt he was such a burden to everyone, but he wasn’t at all! I re-

She appeared before Judge Jeffery Anderson on Tuesday, Aug. 19, where he set a $5,000 cash bond and no contact with the victim. Polk County Sheriff Peter Johnson noted that they continue to investigate the incident and will attempt to understand if the action was truly self-defense, as Krueger did show signs of being in a physical altercation when she was arrested. “We will try to determine if the action she took was appropriate,� Johnson said. “She could be both a victim and the perpetrator. But obviously, when one person stabs another person we have to take action.� The name of the victim has not been release, but Johnson said he was reportedly making a recovery from the stab wounds.

Each school office and the central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed by any interested party. The following household size and income criteria will be used for determining eligibility. Children from families whose annual income is at or below the levels shown are eligible for free and reduced price meals.

Application forms are being sent to all homes with a notice to parents or guardians. To apply for free or reduced price meals, households must fill out the application and return it to the school (unless notified at the start of the school year that children are eligible through direct certification). Additional copies are available at the food service or principal’s office. The information provided on the application will be used for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by agency or other program officials. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year. To obtain free or reduced price meals for children in a household where one or more household members receive FoodShare, FDPIR or Wisconsin Works (W-2) cash benefits, list the household member and the FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 case number, list the names of all schoolchildren, sign the application and return it to the food service office. For the school officials to determine eligibility for free or reduced price meals of households not receiving FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 cash benefits, the household must provide the following information requested on the application: names of all household members and the adult signing the application form must also list the last four digits of his or her Social Security number or mark “I do not have a Social Security number� box. Also, the income received by each household member must be provided by amount and source (wages, welfare, child support, etc.). Under the provisions of the free and reduced price meal policy, Deborah Jaskolka, Food Service Director, will review applications and determine eligibility. If a parent or guardian is dissatisfied with the ruling of the official, he/she may wish to discuss the decision with the determining official on an informal basis. If the parent/guardian wishes to make a formal appeal, he/she may make a request either orally or in writing to: Mr. Scott Johnson, District Administrator, 24022 4th Ave., Siren, WI 54872, 715-349-7392. If a hearing is needed to appeal the decision, the policy contains an outline of the hearing procedure. If a household member becomes unemployed or if the household size changes, the family should contact the school. Such changes may make the household eligible for reduced price meals or free meals if the household income falls at or below the levels shown above, and they may reapply at that time. Children formally placed in foster care are also eligible for free meal benefits. Foster children may be certified as eligible without a household application. Households with foster children and nonfoster children may choose to include the foster child as a household member, as well as any personal income available to the foster child, on the same application that includes their nonfoster children. The information provided by the household on the application is confidential. Public Law 103-448 limits the release of student free and reduced price school meal eligibility status to persons directly connected with the administration and enforcement of federal or state educational programs. Consent of the parent/guardian is need for other purposes such as waiver of textbook fees. The U.S. Department of Agriculture prohibits discrimination against its customers, employees and applicants for employment on the bases of race, color, national origin, age, disability, sex, gender identity, religion, reprisal and where applicable, political beliefs, marital status, familial or parental status, sexual orientation, or all or part of an individual’s income is derived from any public assistance program, or protected genetic information in employment or in any program or activity conducted or funded by the Department. (Not all prohibited bases will apply to all programs and/or employment activities.) If you wish to file a Civil Rights program complaint of discrimination, complete the USDA Program Discrimination Complaint Form found online at http://www.ascr.usda.gov/ complaint_filing_cust.html or at any USDA office, or call 866-632-9992 to request the form. You may also write a letter containing all of the information requested in the form. Send your completed complaint form or letter to us by mail at U.S. Department of Agriculture, Director, Office of Adjudication, 1400 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 202509410, by fax 202-690-7442 or email at program.intake@usda.gov. Individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing or have speech disabilities may contact USDA through the Federal Relay Service at 800-877-8339; or 800-845-6136 (Spanish). USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer. Updated 2014. PI-1404-REN. Any questions regarding the application should be directed to the determining official. 612210 1L WNAXLP

DFC is a federal grant program that provides funding to community-based coalitions that organize to prevent youth substance use. According to the White House OfĂ€FH RI 1DWLRQDO 'UXJ &RQWURO 3ROLF\ VLQFH WKH SDVVDJH of the DFC Act in 1997, the program has funded nearly 2,000 coalitions and mobilizes nearly 9,000 community volunteers. The philosophy behind the DFC program is that local drug problems require local solutions. Recent studies indicate that where DFC dollars are invested, youth substance use is lower.

The coalition works to provide a full continuum of services under the broad banners of prevention, treatment and recovery. Prevention efforts typically include educational programs in the schools, while treatment would include counseling services, for example. Recovery represents a range of ongoing support services. Staff member Carrie Jurek explained the working philosophy by saying, “We want people to understand that we’re not prohibitionists. We just want to create a healthier, safer community.â€? Pinero added, “We offer a nonjudgmental, safe place that wants to help.â€? Explaining that former clients maintain a positive relationship with staff members, Pinero said that it’s common for clients to honk as they drive by. “It’s their way of saying ‘I’m still doing OK.’ We love that!â€?

Bethany Lutheran Preschool Open House Thursday, September 4

Michael Leonard Dahlberg 2/01/76 - 8/25/13

You gave no one a last farewell, You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why. A million times we’ve missed you, a million times we’ve cried, If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died that day. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, In our hearts you hold a place, no one else can ever fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. Part of us went with you, the day God took you home. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Miss you so much, Dad, Mom, Erin, Patrick, Trista, Joshua, Rilee, Jackson, Jacob & Emma 612229 1Lp

Healthy boundaries are important with opposite-sex friends Q: Is it OK for married people to have friends of the opposite sex? While my husband was away on a weeklong trip, I had a male friend from work come over to help me care for our 18-monthold daughter. After she fell asleep, we hung out watching movies together. I told my husband about it, and now he’s upset and feels that I’ve betrayed him.
