The process of setting a boundary can be very uncomfortable and can produce false guilt, but the long term benefits are great.

So true and so good!!! Thank you! I started setting boundaries quite a while ago after reading the Boundaries Book! ❤️ My calling for God didn’t change and never will but my assignments changed ( and they will if you’re listening to the Lord’s voice)

Dad can be mad but no one else can. that was my training.

I believe a person can say thank you for a financial gift but still be dependent on you to always give it when they ask

LOVE listening to this! Wish I’d heard this in my teens and 20’s.

People dont care how much you know, until they know how much you care

This is absolutely wonderful. I feel like I've just struck gold

I am learning these skills with a therapist and your book.  I need it to deal with a family member who is absorbing my life.  Thank you for teaching us boundaries, that its okay and what God wants for our lives.

Speak the truth and love. Know the difference between hurt and harm…Ty you for this message.

Great teaching !! Should be mandatory in high schools!!

Some people actually assume your wanting something of them when your not! Offer what you haven't asked for and then think you encroaching on their boundaries!

This was a home assignment and I didn't want to watch it because it is an hour long, but I'm glad I did.

I waited waaay too long to really dig into your teachings on boundaries.  I'm here now and this is saving my life from total self destruction!!! Thank you so so much!

Thank you again Dr Townsend. Your book Boundaries is amazing, a classic. It should be read by everyone, as we all need help underneath. Life-changing. And thank you for this great, great video talk too.

Thank you Pastor, the verse in proverbs is 19:19 however it’s such a powerful message to not feed into insecurities because it will get tiring for those who don’t put their boundaries up.

What a great and helpful “confrontation”!! Thank you. I don’t have total understanding, because i am still learning “social ques” but i got a lot of “warm fuzzies” and Christian “camaraderie” from listening to you. God bless you. 😊❤✝️

I saved this in the "Watch Later"  to see now and then to remind myself I dont have to be nice. Its freedom. I'm now reading "The Language of Emotions" to learn more to understand my emotions and feelings. It  reminded me of Boundaries. Thank you Dr Townsend.

Loved this Changed my life!

This is a great teaching!
