WWYD stands for What would you do?, a parenting forum abbreviation.

Question asking other forum members how they would handle a dilemma, used on parenting, relationship and money forums, as in "WWYD about a neighbor's barking dog?"

Example: Neighbor's kids keep climbing our fence into the yard, WWYD?

Usage notes

Less judgmental than AIBU because it asks for practical advice rather than a verdict. Also the title of the US hidden-camera TV show "What Would You Do?" (2008 onward), which films bystanders' reactions to staged situations.
