If GAL and detaching is part of both the easy or "soft" and the "harsh" Then where is the wrong in starting off "soft" and GAL/Detach the right way and see where it gets me in a week or so and if no improvement I will take the "harsh" route.
you still have yet to define what *you* mean by "soft" vs. "harsh".

GAL is one of the easiest things to do? Yet threads I read LBS talks about how difficult it is.
i'm not going to draw comparisons and all but because it has been difficult for others to GAL, you're going to not even try to GAL because others have said that it's hard to do? others have said that detaching and dropping the rope works. but you're resisting that.
help me understand what it is that you are looking for.
it is heartbreaking to see you like this because i have been in those stubborn shoes. trust me.
but you have to back up your claims with your experience. not with the experience of others.
here's another idea.
the vets here often advocate that you validate your spouse. "you're right. the m isn't working."
how about validating CG, TH, or anybody here who has given you advice?
