Husband struggles with boundaries over wife’s financial support for adult sons

In this advice column, a man writes to columnist R. Eric Thomas about tension in his relatively new marriage caused by his wife’s ongoing financial and emotional support for her adult sons. The couple has been together for over six years and married for three, forming a blended family. The wife has two sons from a previous marriage: a 22-year-old recent college graduate and a 27-year-old who struggles with alcoholism. The husband expresses concern that his wife continues to provide financial assistance and other forms of support to both sons, which he believes is excessive and potentially harmful, particularly in the case of the older son’s addiction. The situation has created strain in the marriage, as the husband questions whether such support enables dependency and prevents the sons from becoming fully independent. He also worries about the long-term financial implications for their household and feels uncertain about his role and voice in these decisions. At the same time, the wife appears motivated by a sense of parental responsibility and concern, especially given her older son’s vulnerability. In response, the advice emphasizes the importance of open and respectful communication between spouses about financial priorities and boundaries. Thomas suggests that the husband avoid framing the issue as a conflict over right and wrong, and instead focus on shared goals, such as financial stability and the well-being of the family. He encourages the couple to discuss and agree on clear limits regarding financial support, while also recognizing the emotional complexity of parenting adult children, particularly those facing challenges like addiction. The column underscores that compromise, empathy, and possibly professional guidance can help the couple navigate this sensitive issue without deepening marital conflict.

Friends.

I have two plackets that I very carefully and purposefully cut on the fold line instead of on the cut line. Very very incorrect. But my soggy brain* told me it was right until after pressing both

Do I cut new sleeves and plackets (I have enough extra fabric to do so), or do I try to jury-rig this nonsense?

*This is *exactly* the skill I scored worst in on my neuropsych exam... remembering and reproducing shapes dammit

Going to travel soon? Well, all travel needs planning, especially time travel. I suggest investing 1h in listening to "Advice for time traveling to medieval Europe" as a start.
