"I'm only pointing out behavior (mind-reading) that's disrespectful to me. If daughter has a problem with me, then we'll discuss it. I am not doing anything to make myself feel better...that's you mind-reading. Everytime you do it, I'll point it out. Stop mind-reading and there will be no need to point it out. It's your choice. I respect and value you, wife."
This is the fine line of setting boundries, while at the same time, showing validation and compassion and love. It's a tightrope, and a rollar-coaster...all bundled up!
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
