My wife said something to me last weekend about recognizing the effects of my actions. Odd, but she doesn't recognize the effect of her own.

She likes to blame, be the victim, and accept no blame.

I'm going to have to just let her crash and shield us.
^^^^^^^ This...... you're coming along, RD! You're making great progress. This is awesome to read. Yes, you have to let her crash, because this is what she has created for herself, all on her own.
