[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think men find it easier to have boundaries. Women will have no boundaries, get totally enmeshed and burned out, play the martyr and stir up drama rather than doing what they can handle. I used to be so filled with rage toward the sibling who did little and was concerned the GC. I am saying this as a woman who got burned out and depressed dealing with my elderly parents and all their issues for 8 years. There was no appreciation or value for my time after a while. I have learned to set boundaries and detach so I am not filled with resentment and anger so much. Try it.[/quote] because you were raised this way. Why would men find it easier to have boundaries? More than likely they were let off the hook and never expected to be the caretaker. If I look around at my friends with young kids, I see them raising their daughters differently than their sons.[/quote]
