Just a couple of thoughts on responsibility.

Just because a person lays their responsibilities at my feet, does not mean that I have to pick them up.

And if I do for someone what they can and ought to be doing for themselves (as an adult), then I am taking away their dignity and de-skilling them.

I had to look very closely at why I needed to do that for the person that I was supposed to love.
