How do I help my friend whose life imploded after she lost her marriage and job? I think she might struggle with shame and learned helplessness. My wife thinks it’s OK our 12yo son skips church every Sunday for travel softball; how do I get her to support me in saying no? Do I need to back off on the boundaries I’ve set for my 17yo daughter? She is mimicking her mom who has borderline personality disorder. My cousin’s son is in his 30s and is getting a divorce; can his divorce be avoided if they go to the Intimacy in Marriage Intensive?
