Dear Prudence

My Wife Uses Bacon Grease As Lotion. Help!


Listen Later

In this episode, Jenée is joined by Helen Rosner, an award-winning staff writer at The New Yorker.

Together, they answer questions from listeners in serious conundrums. Do you tell your grieving sister-in-law that your now-deceased brother cheated on her years ago?  Are you allowed to punish a child you're babysitting when they’re being an extremely picky eater? And how do you support your wife’s health journey without getting bacon grease all over you?
