[QUOTE="HereWeGoAgain, post: 420093, member: 3485"] Yes, it is very hard to detach when you're sick with worry over what could happen. We, especially wife, struggle constantly with this too. It is a lot easier for me, being her step-dad and away from the immediate environment 80% of the time, but she knows just the right pity and fear buttons to push to drag us right in to rescue mode every time it seems like. Which is precisely why we need to detach. It's better not to know the gory details of how they get by, but so hard to resist the temptation. We don't do Facebook but difficult child has friends who seem to delight in calling wife with scary tidbits about her life, over which wife can do nothing but obsess and worry. [/QUOTE]
