:( I'm sorry to hear that. When people we love "won't change," especially when it's something "for their own good..." That's the worst.

(I'm a bit of a Freudian, so I could talk about this for a while lol) . Incidentally, we cannot escape them. We are "doomed" to at least have some kind of "neurosis--" it's what makes us "human!!!"
