***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker & Mack,

My son is playing football at a very competitive high school. There’s another game Friday night, and he’s already a nervous wreck.

He is 14 years old. His coach is a former professional college player and a former college coach. The coach wants to win, and he runs the team like a college team. Everyone takes it seriously, especially the coach. The other parents seem to love it, but it’s making my son physically sick.

When my son makes a mistake, even in practice, the coach berates him in front of all the other players. I asked around, and he did this to all his players. It’s not like he’s picking on my kid, but I think it’s so wrong. I don’t think a coach has the right to yell at my kid-or anyone else’s.

At practice, he told my son to get his head out of his ass. I understand that it’s competitive, and the team is very good, but it’s just a game.

I think I need to talk to the coach and tell him to back off. My husband thinks this is a terrible idea. He says this is how sports are when they get competitive. Do you think I should say something or leave it alone?

What Product Do You Wish They Would Bring Back?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker and Mack, my friends are all freaking out, crying red flags, and it’s making me second guess everything. I attended my husband’s 10 year high school reunion recently. Well let me first give you a little background, he and I met in late 2022, had a whirlwind romance, and got married after dating for a little over 10 months. So we haven’t been married long and I must admit that I’m still learning things about him and he about me, but when you know you know, right?
Anyways, we’re at his reunion and there are drinks and he’s introducing me to all his high school friends and we’re talking to this girl, she’s really pretty and really nice and we’ll call her Hailey. So one of his other former classmates comes over and slaps him on the back and says, “are you two a thing yet?” referring to my husband and this girl Hailey. And after some awkwardness, my husband introduced me to this guy as his wife and he laughed and apologized and told me something apparently everyone knew but me, that he and this girl Hailey are each other’s “back up” plan. I learned from this drunk classmate of theirs that they used to date on and off and decided that if they weren’t with anyone by their 10 year reunion, that they would get together. Funny huh?
Like I said, awkward. In fact this guy asked us if he made things awkward, laughed, slapped my husband on the back again, and told us good luck. What the hell happened? In 30 seconds this guy blows in, drops this bomb, and leaves. Ok sir.
When we get home I bombard my husband with a thousand questions about this girl, if he still is in contact with her, how serious they were, etc etc. He “thinks” she’s currently single, they only saw each other a few times after graduating high school, he says they’ve exchanged texts, but nothing serious, and the “back up” thing was only a joke.
Like I said, I told my friends and they’re freaking out that either he’s already cheating, or he’s going to. Now I’m freaking out. I even told him that I didn’t feel comfortable with him continuing to communicate with Hailey and he assured me it was no big deal. I don’t want to overreact here, so I figured I’d ask you two and maybe your listeners what they think? Thank you so much!

🚨MOM PROBS🚨
I betrayed my friend
My ex-boyfriend used to strongly dislike my friend, calling her a narcissist who used me as a "yes-man." He accused me of never standing up to her, though I never felt that way. I dislike confrontation, so I often went along with her opinions to avoid conflict. I defended my friend and even broke up with him once because of his negativity about her. But over time, his constant criticism made me question my own relationship with her We’ll just call her O.
Fast forward to O’s birthday, where she invited me, my boyfriend We will call him (T), her roommate, and some other friends. I was too drunk to remember much, but the other friends that were there hit it off
Later, the friends that hit it off invited us to hang out with them. During one of these hangouts, someone started to bath mouth and complained about O, and how rude and demanding and selfish she is and I kind of thought that yes , O can be all of those things.
My boyfriend seized the moment, saying that I’ve always been mistreated by O but am too blind and cowardly to see it and that I’m more loyal to her than him. Feeling embarrassed and unsure, I eventually agreed with them that O might not be a good friend for me.
After T and I broke up (for unrelated reasons), O has been nothing but a supportive friend, making time for me even though she has a really hectic schedule , just to listen to my rants.
I later found out that I was set up at that party by my boyfriend to see who I was most loyal to him, or O and I got caught up in the whole thing when I started to bad mouth my friend.
I feel so guilty about what I said and did, and I’m terrified that someone from that hang out will tell N all I said about her and how I agreed that she was not a good friend, I’m scared I’ll lose N because of my mistake.
I’m overwhelmed with guilt, especially when N is her usual goofy, supportive self around me. I don’t want to lose her friendship, but I also can’t keep carrying this guilt.
What should I do?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear The Hacker & Mack Show,

My husband and our next door neighbor have been fighting since the day we moved in so we finally decided to put up a wood privacy fence and not have to deal with the jerk. Before we even finished putting in the fence posts, he drags the township into it, claiming it's on his side of the property line. We had to pay a surveyor to prove him wrong which really set my husband off. So to get revenge, he plans to paint the backside of the fencing, the side facing our neighbor, a hideous bright orange so it will clash with the guy's red house.
I laughed, thinking he was joking but nope...he already bought the paint. I know our neighbor is a jerk but I have a feeling this is only going to cause even more trouble.....I would love to hear advice on where we go from here. Thank you.-

I’VE A
How do you teach kids a ? I don’t know where I went wrong, but my is just a . They give up and throw fits at the slightest difficulty.
A complete mindset where everything is done to them, they have no over anything and have no sense of holding themselves to
We’ve modeled problem , setting and reaching them, talking about and grit until we’re blue in the face. It goes in one ear and out the next. I want to nip this before it gets worse because it’s not good in life , etc.

Tying Tubes or Vasectomy
My husband and I are done having kids, we have 3 and that's enough. We've started talking about a permanent solution to no babies which is either me getting my tubes tied or my husband getting a vasectomy. My main problem is that I don't like the idea of the finality of not being able to have another baby. And the idea of surgery scares me. I'd rather not have surgery. With that being said, birth control and all its side effects are not for me.
My husband said he'd get a vasectomy while I was pregnant, But after talking to some of his buddies he's changed his mind saying that it'll make him less of a man, that he'll be the laughing stock to his friends because none of them have had one and the big one is cost a vasectomy isn't something we are able to just drop money on and quite frankly we cannot afford. For now my insurance covers my surgery. I'm not sure what to do. Help a girl out

Dear The Hacker & Mack Show

My mother passed away earlier this year. Both of my parents are gone. I joke that I’m an orphan, even though I’m fully an adult.

Now, I’m dealing with the drama of the family business. My mother left everything to my oldest sister with specific instructions on dividing everything. Specifically, mom directed that my little sister get less than half of what the other two of us get because she didn’t trust our little sister.

Well, my little sister is upset, of course, and wants more money. She is threatening to sue us and never speak to us again. We didn’t want that drama, so my older sister and I discussed it.

We think mom cut her out of the inheritance because my little sister was never my mom’s daughter. Her real mom is my older sister. She got pregnant when she was 15, and my mom raised her daughter as her own without telling anyone. But she always resented it.

It would break our little sister’s heart to tell her, but she’s already angry at everyone, including our dead mom. I don’t mind giving her the money, but she’s acting like a demanding brat, and I don’t want to reward that. And my sister doesn’t mind her having it, but she says we need to honor mom’s wishes.

What should we do?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker & Mack love listening to the show online, and finally had the guts to reach out. I've been on and off with two guys. It's been going on for a while. Usually I'll Dump one then date the other. Then I'll dump that one and go back to the other, etc.
Now one of the guys is the perfect guy: has a good job in finance, does Sunday dinners with his family, nice. He's safe. I like him and he's good to me but he's kind of boring. He's the definitive answer of "good on paper".

Now the other guy I date is kind of a bad boy. He works on cars in his own garage because he can't work for someone else. Doesn't do well with supervisors. He was in jail for 3 months for possession of a firearm he shouldn't have had. He had taken it away from his ex-gf because she was unstable, and then one time she called the cops on him and he had it in an Airbnb so he was arrested for having a firearm he shouldn't have.

I'm tired of going back and forth but I like both of them. I know I'm sure i'll get some backlash for sharing this with your listeners but PLEASE Help me out, who should I be with?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker & Mack Show, I've been married for seven years. My wife and I have had some ups and downs, but we have a great relationship.

Recently, she told me she wants to return to her old job because it makes way more money & she will have more time with the kids. That sounds great, right? But here’s the problem. Her old job was working at a strip club. That’s where we met.

We agreed that she would stop stripping when we had kids. I told her I was against her doing this, but she quit her job last week and told me she starts at the club this weekend, just on weekends. And she will make more money working on Friday and Saturday than I do all week. That's hard to argue with.

I’m hurt and angry, and I think this is a dealbreaker. I think giving her one last chance to stop this and telling her that if she doesn’t quit the club, I’m out of here. But what if she chooses to strip over me? I don’t want that, either. What should I do?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker & Mack Show, My friends’ hubby and mine were out of town on business, so we decided to do a girls night out. We all got sitters, dinner was a blast, then we went to a club. We were bombarded by guys. Although, we are all married and faithful…the attention felt great.

However, one of my closest friends spent the night talking and dancing with one guy in particular. When it was time to go, I couldn’t find her. I did get a text: go ahead home without me and I’ll call you tomorrow. The next day she called and admitted she cheated on her husband. I was disgusted and I told her so. They had been having problems for awhile but that doesn’t justify what she did.

We argued for a few minutes, then I hung up on her. She has reached out over and over trying to apologize, but I haven’t responded. I hate what she did to her husband (he’s a great guy) and now that I know what she did, I feel like I have to keep this secret now. She’s been a great friend up until this point…what do I do with this?

***Dilemma Of The Day***

Dear Hacker & Mack Show, First of all please don’t judge me too hard when I tell you the backstory that leads to my current question. I’m 36, single mom to 3 kids. I thought I had met “THE ONE” about two years ago. He was charming, great with my kids, hot, sweet, all the things. He moved in with us and started getting letters and calls from collection agencies. He was between jobs so to help him out, I paid off his bills…and then his truck…his credit cards and even his back taxes. I KNOW BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING I KNOW HOW THAT SOUNDS. I cringe when I tell you that added up to about $50,000…but in my mind I was giving him a clean slate for our future. Then he moved to Vegas to be an MMA fighter…which didn’t work out and he came crawling back. I finally wised up. That was about 8 months ago. I tell you THAT to get to THIS. I’ve been dating a great new guy…this one has a job and everything! It’s been about a month but the other day, he called me from the mechanic saying he needed $300 because he forgot his wallet at home. Promised to pay me back but he hasn’t yet. I’m starting to feel scared that I’m going down the same path, even though he’s paid for all of our dates up to this point. I’m doubting my own sense of judgment because of my ex.I really do like him…but I really liked my ex too. How do I make sure he’s not the same kind of guy?
