[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] All I'm saying, OP, is what I learned is you cannot control them. You will go CRAZY trying to control them.[b] I am a control freak and in general, am very focused on long term planning [/b]and delay gratification, and security, so this was unfathomable to me. I gained 30 pounds trying to deal with the irrational insanity that were their stupid decisions. You can see there is going to be a train wreck, and the lesson is if they are not amenable to your help, for your own sanity and health, you have to step back and just watch it happen.[/quote] Thank you. The bolded, is me to a T... Little Miss Prepared. I want, desperately, to have this situation under control, because there is a large looming side-issue re: the unstable relative, that is largely out of my control. I feel like it's my sanity now, or my sanity later... they're going to wreck one or the other. Grrrrrr. I'm so sorry about your aunt and uncle, PP.[/quote]
