What Would You Do If… Moderated by Jennifer Mann, LCSW of The Navidaters
Dear Navidaters, I have been going out with a wonderful girl several times now and we’re starting to get serious. The problem is I need to disclose a very “scandalous/bad” issue within my family. It’s not the usual parents are divorced and don’t talk or siblings off the derech type thing. It is actually very serious and uncommon. Overall, what is the general rule of thumb in terms of how many dates to wait until major issues need to be disclosed? Thank you. Yaakov*

Our intention is not to offer any definitive conclusions to any particular question, rather offer areas of exploration for the author and reader.

We hope to open up meaningful dialogue and individual exploration.
