[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 686922, member: 11791"] Here's one way to look at it: Continuing to cover for his nefarious activities isn't helping him learn to do better. So we can either support the path they are currently on by enabling, [I]or we can choose to NOT enable any longer.[/I] Its not easy to unlearn the enabling actions - we've practiced them for too long. But WE don't have to keep going down the same road. There's a saying: If nothing changes, then nothing changes. We can't change THEM. But we can change US. And in changing US, it gives them an opportunity to change too. [/QUOTE]
