"We had a big birthday party at work yesterday. Everyone was sitting around eating cake and ice cream and talking about how excited we are to watch the opening ceremonies of the Olympics tonight. One of the guys said all of the athletes should get medals, not just the top three with gold, silver and bronze. He said the amount of work the athletes put into making it to the Olympics justifies some sort of medal. This caused a huge argument about participation trophies and whether or not all athletes, regardless of sport, should receive one. I don't think all Olympians should receive one just in the same way I don't feel all of the kids in my son's Little League should get them either. Several people verbally attacked me because of my stance. What do you think? Should all athletes receive participation trophies?"

"We went to my in-laws house last Sunday for my father-in-law's birthday. I can't stand my mother-in-law's cooking so I brought my own food. Yesterday, she blasted me with an Email and said she will never forgive me for embarrassing her in front of the family by bringing my own food. She says you never do that. I disagree. Why I should go hungry because she's a terrible cook? I'm sorry if your feelings are hurt, but I don't think I did anything wrong. She says I broke etiquette rules. Did I do anything wrong? Is it okay to bring your own food to a family gathering if you don't like the host’s cooking? Do I owe my mother-in-law an apology?"

"My 17 year old son got arrested last weekend. Now everyone, including my friends and family, is blaming me for his arrest. They say I'm responsible because he's a minor and under my watch. He is almost 18 and an adult. He made the wrong choice. I did everything I could to raise him right. It's not my fault he decided to hang with the wrong crowd and get himself in trouble. My family thinks otherwise. I don't think I should be blamed for him getting arrested. What do you think? Do you agree with me or my family? Is a parent responsible when their kid gets arrested?"

"We have new bosses at work that have instituted a new rule nobody likes. They are limiting bathroom breaks to just 5 minutes because several employees were caught scrolling on their phones while in a stall. I think the rule is unfair. Some of the employees are in favor of the new rule because the scrollers are affecting their work performance and productivity. People are taking sides here at work and it's affecting morale. Should companies have bathroom break rules for how long you can stay in a stall? Is this discrimination or just good time management by the bean counters?"

"My friends and I are all single and looking for boyfriends. We had a Girls Night Out on Saturday that ended with some of us arguing. I told my friends I am looking to date down meaning I'm looking for a less than average looking guy. I'm doing this because I know if I date down my guy will treat me like a queen and never dream of cheating on me like my last boyfriend. My friends all laughed and made fun of my dating strategy. I think dating good looking guys only causes problems. They're cocky and arrogant and, from my experience, will always cheat on you because they know they're good looking and can always get an attractive woman. When you date down, that guy knows what he has and will always treat you like gold. Am I right or wrong? Is it smart to date down if you're an attractive woman like myself?"

"My mother-in-law is the worst person on the planet. On Wednesday night, we invited the family out to (local restaurant) to celebrate my daughter's 12th birthday. Everyone bought presents. I was stunned when my daughter opened my mother-in-law's gift. She bought her a scale. Everyone at the table gasped. I can't believe she bought a scale for a tween. That has to be the worst gift ever. My mother-in-law says it's a great gift because my daughter can monitor her weight and this in turn will make her a healthier person. I totally disagree and think the gift is going to make my daughter self-conscious. The family is divided over the gift because they don't want to offend my mother-in-law. What is your opinion on this? Good gift or bad gift?"

"I hate drama and it's all around me at the moment. The man I was dating in April got jailed for doing something extremely stupid. It was online and on the news so everyone knows about it. Shortly after he went to jail, I met a great guy. He treats me right and wants to build something together. I just found out that I am pregnant. The convict is the father. I'm thinking about telling my new guy he's the father. He will give my child a much better life than the convict. I know it's wrong to do but feel it's the best thing for my child. Should I go through with it? What would you do if you were me? Is it wrong if no one knows or ever finds out?"

Heather was reminded of a time her son wrote a letter informing her that he was running away. All because she tried to make him eat casserole. Have your kids ever decided to "run away?"
