Julie wants her boys’ fights to “just stop” and tells them so. That’s as far as she's gotten. In this episode Bonnie helps her see how she unintentionally perpetuates the fighting with blame and finds herself pulled into “The Triangle Game” pitting her kids against each other to win her favor. When she fears the worst, it comes out in blame. When Julie is able to stop projecting her own experience onto her older son and see both her boys from a new perspective, dynamics in the family will change.
