[QUOTE="elizabrary, post: 420056, member: 11235"] Star- I think you are right. It is very difficult drawing boundaries with her- she fights it every time. Let's face it- for years there were no boundaries, so now that I have some and actually enforce them- she hates it. So I'm dreading having to deal with that right up in my face again. And I have gotten better at enforcing those boundaries without anger- just this is the way it is very matter-of-factly, but it is draining. Dealing with her takes so much energy. It's like dealing with a toddler- I have to reinforce again and again because she is always testing me to see what she can get away with. Ugh- that's why it's easier when she is gone. Sad, but true.
