Hi everyone and welcome to today's web chat. Today we will follow up yesterday's column from "tired daughter" who described her father as being "narcissistic", self-centered and without care or compassion for her. So today we will talk about how we set boundaries and how we are able to navigate the waters in a relationship that feels out of balance.

I am pleased to be joined by Dr. Molly Layton, a psychologist in the Philadelphia area who is well-known and respected nationally. She is also a family therapist and a frequent contributor to the Psychotherapy Networker magazine.

Molly, welcome. In yesterday's column, I suggested the daughters suffering was because she was trying to turn this father into the father she wanted and that she would be happier if she was in a relationship with the father she had. Sounds great theoretically, but do you think this advice is impractical or even naïve?
