And since we're on the topic of validation, how does one validate while not being an available emotional sounding board at the same time? One of the DB principles seems to be that the WW needs to sense the loss of the LBS, that the LBS shouldn't be there as an emotional support system. It seems like cake eating. Validation seems a lot like being an emotional support system...
