[quote=Anonymous]I started listening to the Control episode. Halfway through. I actually don't have any problem with it.

It does remind me once of attending an event for WOC cancer survivors and they were talking about needing more diverse support groups, and there was a comment from someone saying, "why do white women have so many problems?!" I think it's that some types of people are hyperaware of their thought and emotional processes and are also in a place of privilege to be able to spend time dissecting those, rather than say facing overt racism from the outside world or struggling to make ends meet. Glennon talks like someone who is privileged and who has been to lots and lots of therapy.

My thought process is kind of similar to Glennon's (though way less extreme) and I'm in a hostile coparenting situation with kids getting older. And I've definitely started to grieve the loss of perceived control over my family. But I also had super rigid parents and know it's unhealthy and more damaging to be super rigid, so I need to let go more as they get older. [/quote]
