Just wondered if anyone has the link to the 'JADE' and other examples. I've been looking everywhere and can't find them. Think it would be a good bit if reading for me today.

Hey chosen,

Yeah, I've read these ones. Being validating is something I've been working on. I started with S.E.T. But find a lot of the time all I need to do is listen. Not be offended by what is being said as it just creates circular arguments and say something like "I didn't realise I was making you feel this way, do you think it would be a good idea if WE... .  ?" I try to take her feeling into consideration and try to find a solution that we or she can work on rather than me taking control of a situation.

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't 'JADING'
