Date: 2018-09-04 09:39 pm (UTC)I think the "what do boundaries feel like?" list is an ideal in almost every situation -- and, especially as a parent, I struggle with parts of it (especially I don’t have to anticipate the needs of others -- I do feel like it's my job to anticipate my kid's needs, but I think that as he grows up, I'm going to need to wean myself off of doing that, to give him space to grow into doing that anticipating-of-needs for himself.)
Taking care of yourself is important. That includes giving yourself some fluff / escapism on Saturday afternoon. I totally support you in saying "Sure, Mom, I'll be there, but around dinnertime instead of in the afternoon." Would saying it via an email be easier than doing it via voice?
I hug you up.
