Your WAW may be on the verge of realizing she can't truly run away from her life. She still has responsibilities she can't ignore. Maybe some of the stress with her mother's condition will ease a bit now. I know you are very upset and angry at her reactions to your boundaries, but try to stay balanced and don't go too far one way.....but don't backslide from what you have set in place. I'm glad you held her and let her cry. I'm also glad you did not say anymore than you did b/c it would have been easy to have lost the ground you've gained. You let her know that she chose this....however, she can come back. I don't get WAW's thinking their LBS should finance their expenses! That is one of the consequenses of leaving the M. That is what she is experiencing.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
