I stuck scrupulously to that rule I gave myself, even when I did have Thoughts & Opinions about what he did or said. There just didn't seem to be any point in adding in another voice making demands of him.
It was the right choice for him, but it was also the right choice for me. I learned that supporting someone in their choices was a whole lot more satisfying than trying to control what they did.
Unsurprising that for a little while I was the only family member on good terms with him.
