[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone read the book? I understand the premise and it’s probably helpful for chronic people pleasers, like myself. But if we just let people do as they please, how is anyone held accountable? If I let my rude, negative family member continue their ways because that’s how they’ve always been…what comes of that? Or is it my own reaction that I am supposed to control?[/quote] You control your reaction, but be intentional. You set a boundary with behavior you don’t like. I think the more in control I am of my reactions, the better I can explain my position when upset. I also understand her point, which is based in CBT, that you can think anything you want to about a situation. Look at how many varied responses there are on threads here. One person might be mad with a behavior, while another person isn’t, or someone has a third take. The circumstances are the same - what you think about it creates your emotions. [/quote]
