On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

People in your town are bound to assume a number of negative stereotypes when you bring your true love from abroad home. But is that really your problem?
What resources best prepared Jordan and Jen for their first child?
What can you do when your sketchy new landlord is pressuring you to avoid his ex-wife (and half-owner of the building) if she comes to introduce herself?
You share children with a gaslighting, abusive ex who damaged your confidence and sense of reality, so you still have to deal with him regularly. How do you warn his wonderful current girlfriend before he does the same to her?
What support does the Chinese Communist Party have from Chinese citizens who have moved abroad? Will declining birth rates and emigration force regime change before the country's infrastructure collapses?
