Have you ever had to use the tough love approach when it came to a loved one’s behavior? Maybe you’ve tried different approaches but nothing seemed to be working when it came to providing care and the proper treatment.
This week, I explore the idea of tough love and when it is necessary. I have been asked this question numerous times and I want to address the reasons why tough love can be essential in familial relationships. Tough love can seem risque, but in the right light it can make a positive difference for your loved one’s future. As I share my experiences, I also discuss the topic of enabling and what that looks like for the family.
Topics Discussed:
Why tough love is essential in family recovery How to know when using tough love is necessary Understanding the root of enabling practices---
