[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes one parent is very controlling. Yes, both parents have evolved a co-dependent relationship with each other to enable the controlling behavior, but the children's reality is that there is one controlling parent. I know I clearly experienced my mother as controlling. That is reality. Whether or not my father bears fault for not challenging her behavior is really their problem, not mine.[/quote] It's sad that this is the label you apply to your mom, without assigning some type of responsibility to your dad. How about "passive," "checked-out," or "disengaged"?[/quote]
