What Is Essential for Dependency to Be Healthy?

 Dependency is a given for all relationships. The essential quality of that dependency actually defines a healthy marriage, friendship, or parent-child relationship. A young woman announced she intended to have a baby who would love her unconditionally.

She failed to realize dependency can be demanding and costly, but also is a privilege and a blessing. In our society discovering what dependency includes is progressive and sometimes surprising but usually follows a timeline that is adaptable for most individuals.

God intended for there to be dependency in relationships regardless of how any relationship is defined. Realignment and adjustments are required for healthy dependency that seeks to reap the blessings God intended. Adapting to dependency is achievable as we accept that our relationships are a gift from God and that he gives guidance to help us adapt to making them workable.
