has she ever actually been alone?

It just clicked for me that I don't think F ever learned how to be alone.

From sleeping in her brother's bed for 16 years, to jumping from relationship to relationship and moving in almost immediately, she's always needed someone in her immediate vicinity.

I genuinely can't imagine never wanting your own space (cosmetic appointments do NOT foster confidence & independency).

That's what worries. Kids learn by watching, and if the pockets are raised believing they always need another person to function, it will inevitably shape how they develop confidence, independence, and relationships.
