Hello! I love, love your show! Today you had a woman call in who recently went on a trip to Chicago with her family.  Long story short: her parents got divorced when her brother was 16.  To this day, they still cater to his needs and baby him.  During the trip, she moved one of his cokes in the fridge and that set him off.   You told her to stop going on these trips and have some time away from them. You told her to tell them that these trips make her anxious and own why she is not going.  I LOVED IT! 

My dad is a MAJOR narcissist; my mom passed away in March.  With her passing I basically lost both parents because Mom was the only one who made Dad be nice to me. After 20 years of being treated so badly, I have decided I don't have to be a part of his mind games anymore.  I am going to take control of ME and say, "No". He is planning a beach trip for the whole family.  I am going to tell him WHAT YOU SAID TODAY as to why I and my family will not be joining them. It's just not healthy for me or my husband or my children. 

I had a pituitary tumor removed recently, so I have also realized how precious life is, what I need to be focused on, and what is important to me. Thank you!
