[quote=Anonymous]Good thread. I've had to learn to do this validation with my BPD spouse. He's doing better, and works hard in therapy, but he needs this kind of response so much. He has a lifetime of being invalidated by his parents. I've found myself doing it more and more, with everyone, pretty much. It does come in very handy dealing with the kids, especially as they've moved into their teens. I swear my teens need a thousand times more patience than they needed as toddlers. And the only way they'll open up is when you talk to them in the way described by the poster who gave examples.[/quote]
