I'm sure you did everything you possibly could for her. I ordered that CEN book and it talks about breaking that cycle. We are just human though, we will make mistakes. Since CEN is not a real obvious thing to most people it's probably hard to detect and fix yourself without education and help. We survived and we will do better by others, that's the best we can do with that.
