Be there without enabling
by: Don

Hi,

The best thing to do is learn how to be there for your daughter in a way that does not enable but supports her efforts to help herself or get help for herself.

If you do things for her when she gets in a pinch, but she is making no effort to admit or overcome HER problems, then you are enabling (not causing) her to continue discounting her own abilities to heal the past.

Feel free to ask more specifics.
