"Any suggestions on finding that middle without sound to weak?"
Have you thought of going to C about this? Stand by your beliefs and actions without being an a$$hole. Understand that it is what you want and that you cannot force your W to do the same. Control only what you can and don't get upset when your W doesn't go along to what you want.
Watch your tone when you talk to her. Discuss. Don't lecture. And most importantly - LISTEN. When she says something, don't dismiss it or argue with her about it. Even if you think it's total dreck, it's what she believes. Respect that.
Treat her how you would like to be treated. It's as simple as that.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
