Rob and Tami answer this week’s burning questions. Can you forgive an addict who has raped someone? This is a tough situation to be for anyone, but Rob and Tami share their thoughts on what it means to have a second chance. They also answer questions about childhood neglect, and why it’s so heartbreaking to see an addict with so much potential choose their addiction over their family/friends/their life.

[21:00] Why do some men have to get the attention of any pretty girl that walks by?
