"When Does Helping Become Something Else?" — Therapist on the Reiners' 30-Year Trap

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott tackles the hardest question in the Nick Reiner case: At what point does supporting a severely mentally ill adult child stop being love and start being something else?

The Reiners paid for 18-plus rehab stays. They housed Nick in their guest house. They brought him to parties because they were afraid to leave him alone. They "tried everything." And it ended with their deaths.

Shavaun breaks down the psychology of families trapped in cycles they can't escape—and what other families dealing with similar situations need to understand.
