00:09 According to insider, clinical psychologist Dr. Lindsay C. Gibson says, "The first sign
00:15 to setting them is realizing you have one or possibly two emotionally immature parents.
00:21 This likely means they only see their side of an issue and have poor empathy for their
00:26 children."
00:27 Well, now you know their limitations.
00:29 You have a chance to learn how to accept and work within that to have the best possible
00:34 relationship you can have.
00:35 A friendly reminder, you're not asking them to do something that's harmful to them.
00:40 You're just asking to do something that you want that's different.
00:43 You may find yourself quick to placate your parents to keep the peace, but learn to slow
00:48 yourself down even when it gets uncomfortable.
00:51 The site reiterates the best course of action is just to stay calm and keep repeating your
00:57 position in a way that is not contentious.
