So, apropos of nothing...

Say you're extremely concerned about the actions of someone under your care-- wanting to make sure they stay on a "steady path", and similar concerns like that. Having never really... Dealt with the scenario historically before, for how long should you be worried, for?

I still want to be able to keep an eye on this person and be responsible, but I'm not sure where the boundary should be set, when it comes to this.

I'll consider it.

Mm. Anger is something I've actually... Been having to mitigate, but not towards the one being spoken about. I don't like feeling angry, in general.

But I can understand the idea of "getting yourself worked up so you'll do what you need to get done".

Doesn't have to be anger, but basically any motivating emotion, but the darker more toxic ones can help.

... Though my mother said she'd prefer I don't have to be angry.

Still, feel free to contact me in the future, unlike my daughters who you've been talking to, I have experience dealing with teenage and adult dependents.

I may do just that.

I am also very aware that I lack a lot of people to speak to, who have experience in this particular area.
