Dear Shayna,

Every time I go for a drive with my cousin she ends up getting us lost. I don’t want to hurt her feelings, but this needs to stop! What should I do?

Sincerely,

Lost Leah

Dear Lost Leah,

You must make sure your message is loud and clear because you are absolutely right; this does have to stop! Start with the basics. You can ask to guide your cousin to the nearest park by giving her very specific directions. It will give her confidence to get you both there without getting lost. If she can’t even get you to the nearest park in under an hour, don’t feel bad. You can always download Google Maps!

Best of luck,

Shayna B.
