[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 62416, member: 1991"] When you explain why you don't ask her, be specific. "Because I need to set a specific time and put arrangements in concrete, and it needs your input as well, to ensure things happen. I call you when I'm not well, which means I am not able to organise - that's why I called YOU. If you can't arrange to meet me where and when I need things done, then I may as well soldier on and do it myself, it's less drama in the long run." And people wonder why we never used respite, or tried to arrange babysitting for difficult child 3! Marg [/QUOTE]
