Scenario

When parents become permanent mediators between adult children

My adult children keep asking me to referee their arguments with each other instead of talking directly and I don't know how to stop being the family mediator without abandoning them. They're in their thirties and I'm tired but I also don't want them to lose each other.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A parent is trapped between wanting their children to resolve their own conflicts and fearing what might happen if they step back.
