Dear April:
Reads to me that the bickering between the two of you need to stop and replaced by calm communication, as calm as possible, and respectful. My therapist at the time taught me the key to effective communication: EAR. It stands for Empathy, Assertiveness and Respect.
-No B (Bickering) in EAR, and A doesn’t stand for Aggression, but for Assertiveness.
Can you make a pact with him, and EAR pact and take it from there?
