She must put this recognition into action, and generate practical results by freeing herself from this man, economically and emotionally, and generating a more fruitful life and work pattern for herself and for her family. If she does not, she is making a choice to continue to live in the past, a choice for which she is responsible. She must understand that her inaction can do damage to herself
