On This Week's Feedback Friday:

• Your 71-year-old married brother keeps vanishing to the Southwest "for the weather" — then a text lands in your phone that's X-rated and very much not meant for you. Now you're sitting on a secret that could detonate his marriage, and every family dinner feels like a minefield. Who, if anyone, deserves to know?
• You traded running your own construction company for a project-coordinator gig — and now you answer to a foreman who shows up, disappears, and cherry-picks the parts of your job he likes while ducking his own. The boss is mysteriously devoted to him. You're losing sleep. Confront the guy, go over his head, or walk?
• The sweet older woman you've adopted as a grandmother just got cornered in an elevator and beaten — by a fellow resident of her retirement community, over a garden-bed dispute. She's shaken, and her attacker has a loyal pack of neighbors closing ranks. What are the real options here — press charges, sue, or leave?
• Recommendation of the Week: Hung On Wood — a listener named Tony quietly handcrafts wooden cutting boards, and Jordan and Jen liked theirs enough to hype his company on air.
• You've made peace with a hard truth: you can love your ailing mother and your struggling half-brother, but you can't live their lives for them. Then a post about a mistreated animal undoes you — more than your own family's pain does. What does that say about you, and why does the dog hit hardest?
