[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not an expert at marriage or custody agreements- but I spent my career in contracts. The key when things get combative is to do as much in writing as possible, when it's not possible, immediately document the conversation. Keep track of legal agreements, don't do things that will make you look petty or non-compliant, if you can have a 3rd party present (i.e. if there is no trust and you need a witness). Don't engage in anything that you don't absolutely have to lest you be drawn into conflict and say something in the heat of the moment. [/quote] My lawyer told me to immediately follow up any phone conversations with an email. He says it’s ok to stand firm when she hijacks FaceTime and then hang up and email basically a recap of the phone conversation. Then print it out and put it in my binder of court stuff. When im heated I have a friend that helps write the email up. The goal is to show that I am trying my best to hear out her concerns and co-parent.[/quote] Contracts pp here- these tactics also work well if you have a toxic boss, co-worker, etc. Again, not a marriage expert, but I used to have the most cya, gaslighting, petty tyrant boss you ever saw. Above, was how I (and all the smart people) dealt with him. It's really important engage only on what you need to, document everything, and not to be drawn into conflict. [/quote]
