I accepted W's email invite. We'll see how this conversation goes.

If she wants to come up with a separation plan, are these ok questions to ask? I don't want to appear supportive, but the info seems critical.
1. How would this work for caring for S?
2. How would this work financially?
3. What is the goal of separation?

W sent me a follow up message. A little back-story... her dad very recently divorced her step-mom.
W received an email from her dad stating he missed the relationship they had prior to the divorce. W and her dad aren't anywhere near as close since he divorced and remarried.
W sent an email to her mom telling her about the email. Her mom took it as an opportunity to "lecture" her about how it's similar to our situation.

She's now frustrated with her mom again. I wish she could see the similarities rather than getting angry when someone points them out...
