Do people think that a (self confessed) ''distant'' relative contacting my therapist is crossing a boundary? I do... She did not ask my permission (I found out from the therapist). I was not a ''minor'' and I was not living with her (hadn't done for years) She was asking the therapist how things were ''progressing'' in the therapy I think. In general, she was rejecting and dismissive rather than ''over involved'' or ''over protective''..
