You are learning how to detach and disentangle yourself from caring for, and rescuing, your child. That is why you'll probably be confused to hear that in order for your child to find their way to health, functioning, and happiness, they need you to be involved.The kind of involvement that I am talking about is probably different from the ways you have been involved. In all likelihood, you have been giving your child advice and your child probably hasn't been taking it.
