Do you think me saying "we" (dad and I) are working through things together as a means to reassure her everything is going to be ok.. as triangulation? That's not my understanding of it.

And neither of you are recognizing how HUGE you both are to her either,
I disagree. It's why we've adopted the Attachment Parenting model since the start. I've addressed the Emotional Parentification already so he's aware about what he's doing.. and since then, it has stopped. I managed to convince him to seek counseling to address a lot of these issues. The list goes on. I'm not a backseat mom. I'm just unable to leave this relationship right now and am trying to be hopeful things will improve with the counseling.

She is suddenly going non verbal? Very bad sign because she is withdrawing and disassociating.
No. She's definitely not going non-verbal. We are still very much close with her but I've noticed a pull back I want to address asap.

I think Have Hope has the right idea. I need professional support to help me deal with this as a partner and mother. Of course I'm affected. My 3yr ols is, as well. She's in the early stages.
