How much of a difference is there in technique in regards to handling MLC vs. WAS? I know to focus primarily on myself for myself as the essential, but now I'm fearful of interacting with her in the wrong way. Thoughts? On a side note, I've had a pretty upbeat PMA TODAY.
Happy to hear that you've had a PMA today!
I can't speak to the MLC stuff too much. That's why I suggest that you go over to the MLC forum and chat with folks over there. Maybe you can get Jackthreebeans to give you his 2 cents.
From what I know, it seems that you deal with the MLC'er with a more gentle (soft) approach than you do with the WAW. The MLC approach requires even MORE patience and usually MORE time than the WAW approach.
While I dealt with my W as a pure WAW, I do think that there were some elements of MLC too.
As with anything here, you have to devise a strategy based upon your unique situation, using DB as a general framework.
The number 1 rule of DB is ... DO WHAT WORKS!
