I really don't have much to update in my sitch and I won't bore everyone with the details thereof, but I wanted to pass along a bit of reading that I had come across to those of you who unfortunately find the need to come to this site in the first place.
I can't take credit for this, but someone in another thread turned me on to "Love Must Be Tough: New Hope for Families in Crisis" by James Dobson. Whoever passed it along said that they didn't believe that it was completely complimentary to DB/DR principles, but I must disagree.
Aside from the spirituality overtones (and depending upon your beliefs, this may be positive or a negative), this book does provide some very good insight for what to do in these situations and does advocate giving the WAS the space that they need to "find" themselves while maintaining boundaries for ourselves. I found it to be a very interesting read and it exapnded upon some ideas that I thought were dealt with rather vaguely in Michelle's book. IMHO it is definitely worth picking up.
Happy Monday to all!
