    Dr. Henry Cloud says boundaries are an invisible property line that separates everything that is yours from everything that is not yours. They keep the good stuff in and the bad stuff out. Personal boundaries allow you to have ownership over your own thoughts, feelings, actions and reactions, while freeing you from being responsible for anyone else’s. Virtually everyone sets some form of boundaries without thinking about it, but when we consciously define them, we gain a huge degree of control over our happiness, comfort and the quality of our relationships.

    I'm all for boundaries. However we need to keep in mind that others also have boundaries. For instance, if we become total "me me" people that stick it to others, by being unfair, they might just set a boundary of their own. Bottom line, our setting a boundary that we ourselves would not like, could blow up on us. I do feel that some counselors are neglectful in teaching good and bad boundaries. A good boundary says, "I must be fair to my spouse's side of the family when it comes to Christmas visits." A bad boundary says, "If I want to spend more Christmas holidays with my in-laws than with my parents (for no good reason), I can. I will visit you on Christian, mom, when I darn well please, and you had better always have that door open to me." --That adult kid, might just find that he/she is no longer invited for Christmas. You see, mom can set boundaries too.

      Agreed, I have found this boundary setting has been used for selfishness, self centred people. Boundaries were meant for abuse to stop abuse, now everyone is using them in friendships in everything with no compromise, all goid strong relationships require compromise on both sides but people are using Boundaries as an excuse to not compromise at all.

    have been about boundaries for years now after being introduced to Dr. Cloud’s work through listening to the Dave Ramsey show for many years. And then sort of mostly understanding the concept in theory, and choosing to form my own boundaries which I definitely lacked for a long time. Yet also never had bought the book. Now finally bought off audible and started listening to it today Christmas 2022! Merry Christmas all!

    I would love a video about how it affects a relationship when a romantic partner, family member, or friend has weak boundaries with other people, and how it affects the person in a relationship with them, and how to handle it and how to think about it, and how to talk to the other person so that they can understand how their poor boundaries with others is affecting you.

    • @nozrep

      very good idea and question. Yet also unfortunately, occasionally, sometimes, there is no useful way to talk to a person like that even in a calm
      way because sometimes people like that get triggered at even calm, meaningful attempts to have sane, adult conversations about adult boundaries. But I would also say that it is good to try.

    Boundaries are "Simple no" said to anything and anyone that draws power from you. Power is your direct connection with God. God informs you, guides you, respects you & provide for you. Anyone or anything that disrupts your natural connection with God is breaking the boundaries and should be questioned and said "No, thank you".

    Dr Cloud thank you for everything you do. Wealth of information I have applied many times.
    Could you possibly answer a question regarding boundaries in a marriage separation ?
    Thanks again God Bless

    Dr. Cloud, I am a huge fan of your work and you've helped me so much. I was wondering if you had a non-religious Boundaries edition I can pass along to so many of my friends who are not Christian. I know the principles and values that Christians share translate across religions. But they always seem reluctant to read this book because they feel like they'd be going against or straying from their spiritual path, which I want to respect. ♥️ Any advice?

    Dr Cloud I love your books and podcast etc, but I have real trouble with this definition...specifically because some big issues I have are with people who share the ownership and responsibility for the property where I live. I think this definition might speak too much to homeowners. How can you include people struggling with a place to live and knowing where they belong like refugees and homeless people in your definition? maybe I'm just missing the point but it would be great to hear from you!

    My boundaries are well defined by staying the hell away from judgemental, critical finger pointing, back stabing churched up HYPOCRITES & any or all HYPOCRITES in general

    • @nozrep
      @nozrep Před rokem +1

      we are all hypocrites according to the Bible, saved and unsaved alike. And also, good for you! I absolutely agree with staying away from backstabbers of any and all kinds and yes there are unfortunately plenty of them in churches also.

    I don’t “own” her so she’s not my property but she is my sister and I want to set boundaries

      @@cameronszn9 I think you are just showing love, not setting boundaries . In a sense, if it were your wife, you would be protecting her, she is your property. 1 Cor 13 “ love always protects”. I will think about it more..

      @billhildebrand5053 Před 3 lety +1

      In “Boundaries” page 134 says, this (triangulation) is a clear lack of boundaries because Person “A” is not owning her anger. What you can do is explain to her how to set boundaries, and why you must do so... that’s in chapter 7 of Clouds book...

  • @karenpetersen9035
    @karenpetersen9035 Před 4 lety +2

    I think this is an exceptionally bad definition. Speaks far too much about what others are doing. A boundary should be a simple line over which I am not willing to step. Not only unwilling, but completely ready to take whatever action it takes to not step over it.

    • @nozrep
      @nozrep Před rokem +2

      well then you are totally missing the point. Yes, absolutely, what you say is a type of boundary, yes. Dr. Cloud’s work is specifically in relation to setting mentally healthy psychological and social boundaries for yourself, against other people who would violate such boundaries. They are both highly necessary types of boundaries in life! What you say, and what he says!
