[quote=Anonymous]OP - I don't have perfect advice. I am commenting mostly because I completely feel for you. I am in a similar situation. I'm really sorry you have to go through this; it's so painful. The way I am coping is to fully accept my very flawed parents as they are. This means that I am investing very little emotionally in the relationship at this point, but it also means that when we are together I am less vulnerable. DH is very supportive, and that helps. I agree that a formal cut-off is not the way to go. Boundaries are your best friend in this situation, although deciding exactly what they are and how to defend them is no small feat. Hugs OP. Like I said above, I feel for you big time. [/quote]
