Today’s Get To It With Pruitt is a complicated one. Our listener wants us to know that she has been married to this great man for several years. He’s been a wonderful stepdad to her children.

She’s got one child that’s five and another one that’s 16. The problem is that he favors one over the other. She says that he does not like the way she disciplines the oldest one.

But she wants to sit down and talk to him and try to win.
