[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 549001, member: 13882"] This may be dumb, but would you both consider going to family therapy together, as well as individually? This way, you could express your concerns (fears) about her magical thinking (you don't have to reveal that you think she's trying to conceive), and her failure to launch. The third party (therapist) would encourage her to discuss her thoughts and beliefs and you wouldn't seem like monster mommy. Sometimes, immature people who verbalize their fantasies are jarred into acknowleging how truly ridiculous those fantasies are once they hear themselves speak it out loud. Perhaps it could lead to discussions about getting on with her life, forging ahead, etc. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
