Gone Dancin's Dilemma, 2

[Nomopo]

I read your update this morning. All sounded good. The plea sounded like the right way to go. Glad that is behind you.

On W's LL, I think you can go with compliments and words of appreciation most easily, and also use humble words (which means makes polite requests vs. demands), which I suspect you are already doing. I also think the indirect WOA to the kids, maybe her family and common friends, is a great idea. And on some of those, especially to the kids, you can do it even if she is standing right there. When we were still having family dinners, I frequently built W up in front of the group, mainly by talking about how she was kicking butt at work. On written WOA, seems like that might best be accomplished through words of appreciation.

Later,
