I can so relate to the whole control thing it is scary to step back and not "do" for i feel i always have done it all in the past so that is hard to change.
i catch myself sometimes wanting to comment or mother if you will when i see something happen that i would normally react to .. for instance this is me mothering.
when we were out to dinner the other night he spilled a greasy noodle on his shirt.. i did suggest put water on it immediately and then realized maybe i shouldn't have so after that i didn't offer that he should then treat the stain with detergent when he gets home.. hahaha so that shirts probably a gonner now and if not maybe he'll wear it with the stain and not look very attractive.. see my other motive here haha
so i am trying to learn not to control and let him find his way, otherwise how will he learn for himself? on the flip side if he learns all this stuff and ends up coming back home he should be more helpful around the house right ?
