Hi Bonnie, IMO, there is a difference between a hurtful thing, and a helpful thing that hurts someone's feelings. If it truly comes from a place of caring and love, I think it is ok. But also we have to know that sometimes there is nothing we CAN do no matter how much we may want to, that sometimes it has to be the other person's responsibility. Just my thoughts.
Les, I was just pondering on that question..You know, just in case that particular issue has, or will come up in my life. Just wondering what others think. I'm thinking that if what you do isn't physically hurtful but rather emotionally hurtful, and what is best for that person, than if in the long run it will help, then even if that person hated you there after, it would be still worth it. ???
