On This Week's Feedback Friday:

• You fell hard for a woman with two kids, ignored warnings from her ex-husband and her own father, proposed anyway, and watched as disturbing behaviors escalated into actual death threats. Now you're stuck with a house you can't afford and guilt about abandoning her children. What should you do next?
• Your husband became a teacher to follow his passion for education, but now he's being physically assaulted by a student in his classroom — and the charter school administration is doing absolutely nothing to protect him. He's documenting everything, but should he sue, report to authorities, or just get out?
• Your late-70s parents refuse to sell their paid-off condo despite stairs they can barely climb and laundry facilities five minutes away. They cite property taxes and "hassle" as excuses while you watch them age in an increasingly dangerous environment. How do you convince them to move before it's too late?
• Recommendation of the Week: Anker Nano 3-in-1 Portable Charger/10,000mAh Power Bank
• You're 14 and caught COVID for the first time, but months later you're still exhausted — barely surviving high school while your perfectionism screams at you to keep achieving. Summer brought relief, but now school's back and so is the fatigue. Can you ever feel normal again, or is something deeper going on?
