[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are examples of “enmeshed” and why does it seem to have a negative outcome? What does a healthy relationship look like with parents who live nearby where both child and parents like each other and want to spend time together? [/quote] If both parties enjoy hanging out and each other’s company it doesn’t sound unhealthy or enmeshed. If one party regularly guilt trips the other or either party feels as though they aren’t entitled to any privacy these could be signs of enmeshment. Different families have different boundaries but, with enmeshment, boundaries are not respected and the relationship causes undo stress and anxiety [/quote]
