Coming To Save The Day

White knight syndrome or being a savior, whatever you want to call it, it’s codependency, and it’s not healthy.  It doesn’t matter if you’re the one doing the saving or the one always needing to be saved, we’re taught these roles from a young age.  Just look at the cliché princess in some sort of trouble and the white knight has to come save her.  The biggest thing in any relationship, whether it be husband and wife, parent and child, or boss and employee, is the presence of interdependency.  Healthy relationships are both give and take.  A lot of parents try to rescue their children and shield them from any ill consequences.  Tim admits he’s more likely to jump in and ‘save the day’, while Jamie will ask them what they think or tell them to figure it out. Which role do you play?
