With the holiday season approaching, I’ve been hearing all kinds of advice about boundary setting. As a grandmother myself, I’ve experienced firsthand how relationships and boundaries evolve with adult children over time. I think what’s missing from most modern conversations about boundaries is how important it is to start from a place of empathy, exploration, and open communication. Boundaries should be like fences, not walls— Walls are immovable and permanent, and you can't see through them. Fences can be moved, they can be adjusted, and they have gates that let people in and out.
