A little reading to begin with

A SAMPLE FROM CHAPTER ONE

Write what happened in language a neutral observer could understand: someone arrived without checking, gave a child food against an agreed care instruction, or criticised a decision in front of them. Separate that from conclusions such as "they want to control everything".

You may still have a genuine pattern to address. Specific examples make the conversation clearer and help you decide what change is needed. Avoid compiling an endless case file to win the relationship. Start with the issue affecting the household now, while recognising that serious or unsafe conduct may need a different response.
