This has to be the #1 issue between D and I. It is even something we are working on in Therapy together.
With our stress level so very high with his dad here, we have to put aside our own issues for a bit. It's hard, but we have to do it.
When we try to communicate with each other, we are so defensive that it is hard to hear each other. Try to bring stuff up without blame. When we have such high stress, it is hard not to take what the other person is saying as blame.
