How do you communicate with your ex.
There are a few things that I want to discuss with him regarding the kids. I am angry about these issues but if I let rip I worry that he's not going to listen and respond with anger at being attacked rather than help find a resolution to the issue.
To summarise the problem, he's done some things that is making our daughter anxious. There is no way 11 year old dd would be able to talk to him because her dad's reaction would be to flip out that he's been criticised then realise I'm right. I don't have to see the flip outs or sulks any more but the children are likely to see him quietly seething at future contact and that's awkward and unfair on them.
The issues do not affect her siblings as they weren't having contact with Dad at the time (long story!) but had they been there, I think they would also be experiencing anxiety.
