My son is 20 and is in a relationship with his 19 year old first cousin. He is an adult, lives on his own, and from a legal standpoint, he is not doing anything wrong because relationships between first cousins are legal in our state.
I obviously do not like the situation, but I also love my son and want to continue supporting him. I am struggling with how to handle something I strongly disagree with without pushing him away. What would you do in my situation?

If you haven’t walked into a McDonald’s in a while, the first thing you’ll probably notice isn’t the menu. It’s the décor.
Gone are the bright red roofs, colorful booths, tile floors, playful murals, and giant PlayPlaces. In their place are gray walls, faux wood finishes, black furniture, pendant lighting, and touchscreen kiosks. Many newer locations could easily be mistaken for a coffee shop, an airport café, or a generic fast-casual restaurant.
I learned to lie the way some kids learn to ride a bike—gradually, with plenty of scrapes and falls along the way, but once I got the hang of it, I never forgot how. It started as a survival mechanism. A way to navigate a world that often felt unpredictable, where the truth didn’t always work in my favor.
My childhood was filled with landmines. Say the wrong thing, get punished. Show weakness, get ignored. Tell the truth about something you did wrong, and you learned very quickly that honesty wasn’t always the best policy—it was the fastest route to consequences. But a lie? A lie could smooth things over. A lie could buy time. A lie could protect me.

My girlfriend has around $50,000 in debt that started when she was about 20 and gradually grew over the years. It is spread across several banks and includes credit card debt, personal loans, and debt from a trip to Europe last year that I advised her against taking at the time.
She makes about $60,000 a year. Recently, she asked me, somewhat hypothetically at first, if I would lend her $15,000 so she could pay off one of her debts and avoid the ongoing interest. Her plan is to pay me back $1,000 a month for 15 months.

I had to check my 16 year old daughter’s phone. I know people will have opinions about that, but there were genuine reasons for my concern. I didn’t do it behind her back, and I wasn’t trying to invade her privacy for no reason.
While I was checking, I found messages where she was telling her friends that she wants to get pregnant and have a baby. From what I can tell, she also has a boyfriend. I don’t have a problem with her having a boyfriend. What worries me is that she’s been talking to him about wanting a baby, and it sounds like they both want the same thing.
