[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the situation, but if there is a major concern I would say it’s a good idea to state your worries one time, clearly, let them know you are there for them regardless and always…and then never mention it again if possible, and know they will find their way to you for support when they need to. My mom and I have a great relationship and it’s largely because she struck a good balance between expressing an honest concern and then letting me have the freedom to figure it out for myself. That way, I always knew I could go to her when I needed her, without being judged. And I cannot tell you the number of times in my life where a little part of me has realized “oh, mom was right…again.” But she herself would have never said that to me, ever. I really love her for that.[/quote]
