Thanks for downloading my call of the day podcast you two can participate in my live radio program heard weekdays from two to five PM Eastern time on serious XM triumph for an 11th

Johanna welcome to the program

Oh my gosh. Hi, Dr. Laura. Hi

What can I do? Hi?

Hi, I'm calling. I've been a long pain listener. My mom listened to what I was really, really young in the car and now here I am.

Over 20 years later, listening to you for the same reasonings, but I, excuse me, I lost my dad almost it'll be two years in this coming January and

and him and my mom are married almost four years. They had a beautiful marriage and I have always had trouble. My mom and I are very polar opposites, but she's always been, she's always been a super mom to me, but almost going too far into like the micromanaging ages.

And I guess I can either get you an example or if you have enough information from that, then I guess my question is just how do I set healthy boundaries to

Please I break out in highs when I hear this damn word about boundaries. Jesus everybody's treating each other like cattle.

What the hell does that mean? If somebody is micromanaging a mom, I love you. Trust me. I can handle it. That's it. And that's cheaper than putting up boundaries. Trust me.

Um, love you. Trust me. I can handle this. It's okay. That's it. Instead of confrontations about how you nitpick and monitor that it has never gotten people to be closer.

Oh, great ideas, but trust me. I'm handling it. I love you. I want to go shopping Saturday. That's how people get along, especially women. You don't say shopping with a guy.

Let's stop with the boundaries. I'm so freaking sick of that term. It is so antithetical to the warmth and consideration people can show each other to have each other and understand each other and handle their diametric polarities.

Come on. It would cycle babble going around. Not enough common sense.

Okay. Please try to please. No. I always try to look for the common sense route, but I know my generation struggles with it. So.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thank you for saying that. Yes.

No, my, my dinner truly at 26 years old. My generation really does does false shorts of that. So thank you very much for for telling me go with common sense. I can thoroughly appreciate it.

Kindness and common sense. Do more than arguing about boundaries.

That's fair. That's fair.

All right. What's the problem now that you have a whole non boundary way of looking at this?

What was that?

What's your problem that I can help you? What was your question?
