How do I counsel a woman in my church who has a college student living with her who has become very verbally and emotionally abusive to her? My sister always says mean things to me; how do I deal with her? What else could I say to my 26yo son who is sad that he didn’t accomplish everything he wanted to this year? My dad and daughter haven’t talked to me in 25yrs; how do I invite them to my house? My dad stopped talking to me because of the sexual abuse I told my family about.
