On this week’s episode, Rebecca, Carvell, and Gabe answer a question from a listener who doesn’t know whether to tell her kids their former nanny is dying, and another from a mom whose son is a little too forward with the hugs. Plus: parenting triumphs and fails, recommendations, and more. And on Slate Plus this week, Rebecca updates members on the latest developments in the domestic soap opera that began last week.
