Dear Adult ISH: When Parents Can't Parent

In this episode, two letter writers share their experiences of
lost parents. One is grappling with the death of a parent, a
breakup and tough questions as they face loneliness and the
prospect of raising a child without a partner or a parent.
Another is thinking about their absent father and trying to
decide what kind of relationship is even possible. We get into
it, and find some gems of wisdom from YR Media writer and
psychology student Ashley L. Fields, the brains behind the
Orphanish online community, and American drag queen and “RuPaul’s
Drag Race” alum Eureka O’Hara.
