Scenario

When grief complicates family boundaries during major transitions

My mom and I have been closer since my dad died, but now I'm getting married and we're both struggling with how much involvement feels right. She wants to be helpful but sometimes it feels controlling, and I want her included but also need my own space to start this new chapter.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Loss has created a closeness that now feels both precious and suffocating as life moves forward.
