But at the risk of sounding unsupportive, I don't think there is much of a chance that you will get closer to your therapist by telling her you researched her daughter. It seems equally as intrusive as house drive-by's. I believe a therapists family is generally an off limits topic to introduce, especially if you gave her the opportunity to talk about her daughter and she didn't share freely. She may not think its a big deal if you bring it up, but by the title of your thread it sounds like you know you've already crossed the line.

I know.
I want to believe like some posters do, that it's all right because googling is so common and it's the public domain, but in my heart I know I shouldn't have read everything I did. Unless. I asked. First. T said maybe she wouldn't have minded that I drove past her house ( this was about 5 years ago, not recently) if I would have asked permission first. I should have asked if I could read her daughter's writing. When I saw T's art show. I thought she'd be angry, but she was pleased, instead. She's pretty open to answering my questions but I never thought to ask first. I wish she'd punish me. I don't where that wish comes from. But she'll probably say it's not so terrible. I hope...
