Prudie says it’s OK to ghost your social media followers but not a child who thinks you’re her family. Then, MTV News writer Jane Coaston joins in to advise on:
- What to do if your mom uses surviving cancer as an excuse to spoil your kids.
- How to tell a family friend her husband is being a creep.
- How to make your extroverted family and introverted boyfriend get along.
- How to tune out a loud co-worker.
- And how to ask a sibling to chip in for your mom’s care.
Finally, Prudence outlines more of the “lost at sea” dating handbook.
