Hello,
Dear Moral Digesters (MDs), a friend of mine asked me to help him solve a puzzle that befell him. This is what he said and I quote:
"My elder brother visited me and we needed to go out in the car. Usually, my wife does not contend with anybody for her front passenger seat but then, my brother didn't think same way.
He did not see anything wrong in taking the same seat while my wife had to go to the back. I have asked different people and they all had varied responses in support of either of them (my wife or brother) and so I want to hear from you. Personally, I felt my brother should go to the back seat but I didn't want to offend anybody and my wife understood that. Ideally, who should take the seat in this context?
What about at home? Whom should I eat with if the circumstance does not permit us all to eat together at the same time."

Some traditions in Africa would expect the honour of the seat be given to your brother esp. if he's your elder. But in this case, let the guy do what pleases his conscience.
