Summary

Your stepson doesn't know your late husband wasn't his real father. Is it your place to clue him in against his mother's wishes? Welcome to Feedback Friday!

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now let's dive in!

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

Your adult stepson doesn't know your late husband wasn't his biological father. Is it your place to clue him in against his mother's wishes? [Thanks to licensed marriage and family therapist Nancy Yen for helping us with this one!]
You're deeply in love with someone who professes the same toward you, but a prior history of abuse makes her skittish about intimacy. How do you support her through these times while protecting yourself from being hurt every time she pushes you away?
You and your cancer-battling wife are overjoyed to have a new child, but you sure could use a break from the incessant interference of your intense in-laws. How do you get them off your back and protect your family from their destructively overprotective tendencies?
Should you pursue an implied job with your wishy-washy in-laws, or take their poor communication skills as a sign that maybe you're better off without taking them on as co-workers?
Want clarification about how woolly mammoths might once again walk the earth? Here are some updates from our recent guest Ben Lamm!

0:00.0	Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host Jordan Harbinger.
0:07.0	I'm here with Feedback Friday producer, a co-host so committed to this show that he actually
0:11.4	arranged to have his birthday fall on the day of this recording. Gabrielle,
0:15.6	was right. Happy birthday, man. Thank you. Huge sacrifice on my part,
0:20.3	honestly. I can't think of a better way to spend my birthday by the
0:22.8	way than reading some feedback Friday letters and being roasted by you so it's a
0:26.9	pleasure. Yeah you hear that guys? Gabe likes the roasts he's on board with the
0:31.0	roasts I still get emails from people going like,
0:33.1	ease up, it's not nice, you treat your friends poorly in there eventually, it's like
0:37.6	reading into this a whole lot. I might have Stockholm Syndrome a little bit,
0:41.0	but I mean I'm still laughing over over here so I'm good with it.
0:44.4	Let the record reflect that my homey slash co-host explicitly consents to all
0:48.7	rostage you guys can stop sending me dems maybe the layer of sarcasm is lost on some of these people.
0:55.6	Then again, I do pay you, so maybe there's a power dynamic here that I'm not sensitive to.
0:59.2	This is starting to sound like a feedback Friday letter.
1:02.4	My mouthy boss won't stop roasting me on the show we do together.
1:05.3	What would you do?
1:06.3	I'd be like, well, are the roasts accurate?
1:08.3	Exactly.
1:09.3	Are they funny?
1:10.3	Are they original?
1:11.6	Come on. Just laugh, bro, enjoy it, you know?
