Catherine shared , "Healthy Assertiveness is having clarity" she asked us to rate our assertiveness on a scale from 0-10, thinking of a conversation we had with our Adult child. Where we would be on the scale and where do we think they are on that same scale. I know this may be odd. I said "2" for the both of us. As we both going into protective mode-so some areas we don't go there. It really has to do with my son and her brother who died from the complications related to a suicide attempt over years ago.
