[QUOTE="KFld, post: 420634, member: 2442"] hang in there and keep coming here. We have all been at the point where you are right now and it takes a lot of practice to stop allowing them to manipulate us and to stop enabling them. It also takes a lot to finally realize that as long as you continue to allow her to manipulate you and you enable her in any way, she will continue to live the life she is living because she won't have any reason to change. She has to want to do it for herself because nobody else is. A speaker at an alanon meeting I attended recently said it took her a while, but one day she realized that the word NO was a complete sentence :) [/QUOTE]
