Friday Morning Livestream 4 April 2025

"Hi Stef, my mother-in-law seems to perfectly fit the description of "borderline personality disorder". My wife used to get upset at me for not playing along to appease her dysfunctional mother but after a few years of therapy came to realize that behavior is not normal. She drew boundaries and cut regular contact with her mother and our lives became much more peaceful. We now have an 11 week old baby, and her mom is trying to come back into our lives as if everything is normal. I would love to cut contact with her, but my wife wants to do her "due diligence" before she cuts her out. She let her mother meet our baby boy, but I've refused to let her hold him. We both know we need to have a direct, difficult discussion with her mother but my wife fills with anxiety at the thought of the confrontation. There is no point of contention in our marriage, we are in agreement and everything is great, except having her mom continually trying to meet up with us. Is this worth a call in? There is something holding my wife up from this, perhaps hearing it from someone other than me can help?"

"I have a two and a half year old toddler. He screams a lot, especially when big feelings are involved. Can we do something about it?"

"How do you recommend moving to the private sector. I am 26 with all professional experience being government IT contracts. Thanks!"

"Do you recommend writing cover letters when applying to jobs? I think that is supposed to add the personal touch but I never made them"
