[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once adult children are (financially) independent adults, view them as equals. No one has the upper hand. No one is the boss or in charge. I am always asking myself, "would I say this to a friend?" If I wouldn't say it, I don't (ie I would never say, "you really should ...") Respect their unique personality which may or may not blend easily with yours - just like out in the wider world - not every personality is an easy match. If they are a private person and don't open up much about themselves, you must respect their personality. They don't exist to fulfill your emotional needs. I think it's really a friend relationship - but only once they are adults.[/quote] I like this and think this is true. This is my 2nd time posting (to the person who thought we were all the same) and I do think a lot of my close relationship is because we're equals and best friends. [/quote]
