On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- Your friend is legally chained to a life of debt for killing one person and disabling another when he fell asleep behind the wheel in his youth. While everyone agrees he should be held accountable, it seems cruel and unusual that his only hope for relief is death. Is there an ethical way to ease his burden? [Thanks to bankruptcy attorney Erin Hoskins for helping us with this one!]
- On your big wedding day, how should you navigate the friction that's liable to happen between your trans brother, the other two members of his throuple, and your conservative family who doesn't get (or wants to get) how any of this works?
- How do you tell your MS-diagnosed and newly unemployed roommate and his ever-present (but non-rent-paying) girlfriend to either find a new place, move back home, or start contributing more to household cleaning and maintenance?
- Should you share unsupervised custody with your toxic, out-of-control, cheating ex who has exhibited countless episodes of poor judgment and domestic violence with the woman he left you for? Or should you trust your instincts and keep things the way they are?
- Do we recommend any networking conferences that might help an ambitious 25-year-old learn more about himself, gain valuable experiences, and add perspective to his life?
