If someone says a boundary is not negotiable, then you have to decide if that is a fact or not. If it is, then you have to decide how important it is to you, and if important enough, what are you going to do about it? What are you prepared to do to set your own boundary? Can you leave (permanently) if it comes to that?

I know you love these questions...
