I don't think it is about making his life easier. I guess I am the one who expressed concern that I've been dependent on having T1 in my life and now that he is in his 70s I am worried about the day that is coming when he dies or gets too ill to practice. T2 I think is trying to force me to find multiple avenues of support (I tend to focus on T support because it is the most satisfying.)

So I do get that this is his way of helping
It would be easier if he was so awful that I could just quit, but he has been pretty good to me overall. Just a little harsh in the boundary dept.
