Encouraging Sarah To Speak Up
Later that evening, I gently nudged Sarah to share her feelings with Emily directly. “Mom needs to hear it from you,” I whispered encouragingly. She hesitated, casting a worried glance toward the kitchen. “But Dad…” she murmured. “You can do it. I’ll be right here,” I reassured her. Gathering her courage, she finally spoke up about her discomfort with Jake and Noah, hoping Emily would finally take her worries to heart.

Limiting Family Visits
After a long talk, Emily finally admitted we might need to take a step back. “Maybe Sarah just needs some space,” she conceded at last. A wave of relief passed over me. “We’ll limit visits for now,” she decided, her voice calm but resolute. It was a small but meaningful win—finally a chance to ease the tension and give Sarah the comfort she needed in her own home.
