It's quite a shift from office 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.240 administrator too, which. 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:05.400 Is what I'm saying. I'm just nervous because I see 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:06.360 the news all the time. 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:07.840 And I see what they have to deal with and 0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:11.560 just the kind of stigma that is surrounding them. 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.960 And maybe she feels like true calling to go out 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.000 and change something in the community, you know, and give back. 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.480 Yeah, but like I feel like there's other ways to 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.159 go about it. She says that it's good money. 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:25.520 And maybe that's true, and like they. 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.159 Need more people in law enforcement, but I never. 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.040 Get bonuses and stuff sometimes and you sign up? 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:33.520 Is she in police school? What do you call that? 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:36.200 Don't like the movies? 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:39.120 Yeah? Yeah, she's looking into it, but like, I think 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:43.560 she has decided that and she's just gonna do it 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:45.760 and whatever comes with they comes with it. 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.000 I don't know she really understands all the. 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:51.839 Have you tried sitting her down in front of the 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:56.440 TV and showing her an episode of NYPD Blue. 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.719 Anytime I try to say anything about the dangerous stuff, 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:05.600 she kind of brushes it off as I'm worrying too much. 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.480 And yeah, I mean I think it's natural to worry, 0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:10.640 Like that would be a job that I think anyone 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:12.919 would worry about someone that they love entering. 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.560 Totally. She also wants you to take her seriously. 0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.240 I'm saying that Blake, maybe start off as the. 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:22.279 Mall cop, mall cop, work your way up in the danger. 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:24.240 I can see why she's like, no, I don't want 0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:24.640 to do that. 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:26.200 Yeah, nobody wants to be. 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:28.400 A I don't know. 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.240 It's just a lot to take in right now. And again, 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.680 whatever she does, I'll support, I'll accept her. But like, 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:35.440 you're just worried. 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:38.360 I want to have this conversation about all the risks 0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:38.760 and everything. 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.680 Like it's hard to sit her down and really. 0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:42.760 Liked a man's playing being a cop to her. 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.120 It sounds like what he was saying was that he's 0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:50.679 tried to like tell her about some of the risks 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.080 and she's not listening. 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.080 I agree with Lex this. It feels a little weird 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:56.679 for you to be explaining to her something that she's 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:57.520 passionate about. 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.440 But yeah, but not a passion of her. It's been 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.280 something that she just thought of within the past. 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.520 Month, that you know of, right, Okay, So Brooke, let 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.400 me just ask you if the genders were reversed and 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.440 he wanted to become a cop and she felt hesitation 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:13.880 about it, I think would that feel different. 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.039 I think it's normal to feel hesitation. I think to 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.839 say that she doesn't understand the dangers of being a 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:20.839 police officer is pretty Yeah. 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.560 I would trust what her boyfriend of four years has 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:26.080 to say. Like he's coming from a place of concern, 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.560 it sounds like, and then that must be grounded in 0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:31.039 something sounds like you you feel like you're gonna say 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:34.080 something to her and she's just gonna go, oh my gosh, 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:35.520 we didn't think of that. 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:42.280 There's guns involved, girl, I didn't know way.

Yeah? 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.120 Yeah, not great advice. It's the best we can do. 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:53.600 Because one of our listeners, Aaron, has a girlfriend of 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:57.200 almost four years now, who recently told him she wants 0:07:57.240 --> 0:08:00.240 to give up her office job and become a cop, 0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:05.840 and his immediate reaction worry, concern that she made not 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.920 understand the full impact taking this job could have on 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.680 her life and on his because they're a unit together now. 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.640 But some of us here are concerned that this is 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:19.200 going to come across as a classic case of man'splaining. 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:21.960 Well, he did a lot of like, she doesn't understand 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:23.040 how dangerous it is. 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:23.600 Right. 0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:27.200 I agree that could come across as I know better 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:27.800 than you do. 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:29.600 And here's why he's. 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:31.000 Got to watch the wording a little right. 0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:33.959 Definitely, that's not what you're looking to do here right 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:36.120 Erin No, and. 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.880 Whatever she wants to do, I will fully support her. 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:42.840 I'm just more worried because she's focused on the money aspect. 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:44.839 Everything that we talk about whenever we talk about is 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:46.199 just how much money she's going to make. 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.000 How she loves the money, the money, the. 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:51.440 Money, and we never talk about the safty And that's 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:53.560 just all I was trying to get across. 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:57.839 Okay, So you need advice because you feel like she's 0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.520 not hearing you and your concerns. How do you get 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:01.839 her to at least be open to. 0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:04.640 That need to to think more about the safety parts 0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:07.040 and not just focus on money, because we can make 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.440 money in any type of way, you know. 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:12.400 Right, money comes and goes. Your life is precious, right. 0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.840 So, Brook, what's your advice to Aaron here before we 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:15.520 call his girlfriend? 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.120 Well, I think no matter what you do, have to 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.920 come in saying I fully support you in whatever decision 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:23.319 you make because it's not your choice, it's her career choice. 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:25.800 And I think the way you can show that is 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.480 you could follow it up by saying, why don't I 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.440 help you with the pros and console list? That way 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:32.400 I get to better understand why you want to do this. 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.920 Maybe you come away feeling more secure in the choices 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:40.160 that she's making, or she comes away feeling like, oh man, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:42.160 there's a lot of cons here. Maybe it's not a 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.400 good idea.
