Gabe: My father-in-law has always had some female acquaintance from work in his life who becomes a close friend and hangs out around the family. He realized within two weeks of knowing her that they did not click at all. She's also tried to drive a wedge between my sister-in- Law and my brother-in-Law when they were having marital conflicts. His only argument is that she loves our family and why can't we all love her back? How do we handle this woman? What should I do here? Sign Fix-In to eliminate this Vix-In.
72-year-old Dad seems clueless that the young and comely third-wheel Jezebel who's been stealing his attention away from Mom might be up to something less than seemly. How do you defuse the spell that's been cast over him by this manipulative muse? We'll try to find an answer to this and more here on Feedback Friday!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- Was Dark Jordan right in his episode 828 advice to the listener whose neighbors were eavesdropping on Zoom therapy sessions through a paper-thin wall?
- How do you get your 72-year-old dad to see that — much to the chagrin of your mom and the rest of the family — the comely young woman who's been giving him attention might have ulterior motives?
- Does listening to this podcast potentially jeopardize your safety while traveling to Xi Jinping's China? [Thanks to Laowhy86 for chiming in on this one!]
- Your tween son wants to slap a controversial sticker about a political leader on his binder that he takes to public school — in Washington, DC — every day. Considering how politically polarized our country is right now, is it prudent (or even safe) to let him?
- You've been looking to up the efficiency of your self-improvement game after pulling yourself out of a funk and getting fit. How might you optimize your routine without getting distracted by the minutiae of the tools you're using?
- You were adopted in later childhood by a kind and loving teacher, but you're finding it difficult to make the transition from calling her by her first name to "Mom." How can you do it without making it weird?
