    • We need them to be softer and more focused. These are the signs that we need from them and upon which everything else hangs, the survival of a relationship or a marriage, where children go to school, who owns a house, what's in a will. The pain and strangeness is deepened because they don't say a flat-out no. They insist, repeatedly, that they do love us. At points, they appear to listen to us. They don't want the connection to unravel either. The things we're trying to get them to do have an elemental simplicity, a few more words here and there, not those annoying behaviours, some more gestures at key moments. You'd think this was entirely obvious. So many people, we included, have absolutely no problem with such matters. They come to us as readily as to some does the gift of mental arithmetic or a facility with language. We suffer because we can't, unlike in other areas of endeavour, see or grasp the effort required to change psychologically.
