Hey IDU, sorry I haven't popped in recently...I haven't been posting much lately.

It sounds like you are working yourself up to taking a stand. Good for you! I like Coach's script. Fair enough if you're getting ready, but IMO it might even have more impact if you deliver it at a time when things are going "well" at home. If she's thinking she's doing a good job at "managing you", it will throw her even more for a loop when you don't follow her plan. It sounds like a very difficult step to take, but IMO taking a strong stand is a very good idea with a WAW. Putting yourself in the driver's seat and gaining her respect (even if she doesn't like it) will really shift the dynamics.
