Re: To Barb: Ask Dr. Wagner

[Guest guest]

Dr. Wagner,

I want to echo Barb's eloquent thanks for your help. I printed out

your response to her question re: letting go of unrealistic

expectations and will share it with a friend whose daughter is

despondent over her perceived slow progress in overcoming severe

depression. Sometimes as parents we can't frame answers in ways they

will be " heard " . Having an objective, thoughtful voice with experience

in " our world " makes all the difference between a message getting

through and a message falling on deaf ears. Thank you!
