I appreciate your insight. I didn't mean to come across like that at all. It's an awful situation all around. And you are right, I should have validated her struggles in a much better way when we were M. Part of this whole process is determining my role for sure, and this is one thing I wish I had been better at for sure. Most of her validation on this issue has come after the S.
Thanks for the wishes. I wish you all the best in your sitch as well, and please feel free to comment at any time. Feedback is always welcome and appreciated
