Colin writes that his co-parent’s purposeful resistance to anything he wants or suggests is driving him nuts. He wonders how he will stand to deal with her for the next 15 years! Diane & Rick discuss how to prioritize issues and learn to give the other parent the opportunity first to correct a possible misunderstanding before attributing motives to her behavior or words.
