Episode Notes

Prudence is joined this week by Elizabeth Sampat, a game developer, writer, and troublemaker whose work has been covered in Vice, Polygon, and the L.A. Times.

Prudie and Sampat dig into letters about what to consider when your biological mom doesn’t acknowledge your relationship on social media, what to do when you see that your teenage daughter was “sexting” with her friends, whether you should keep paying a beloved nanny even though she no longer watches your kids, how to handle a heterosexual friend who frequently calls herself gay, and whether you should tell your husband that you tricked him into having your third child.
