Reminds me of a statement someone made to me once that stuck with me: You can't reason with "crazy". And it will only make you crazy if you try. So I tell myself that a lot. That you can't reason with "crazy".


Another learning that I had to repeat to myself a lot is that it's ok to let someone else be wrong. I used to think, or at least behave as though I think, that it was my responsibility to educate someone close to me about how or why they were wrong about something that I was so sure of, and that I thought was important. Especially if they thought something wrong about ME or were being ridiculous. I no longer think that. I'm finally okay with just letting someone else (especially a difficult child) be wrong. And I try not to reason with crazy.
