Present a united front

If you and your partner have agreed that your family has crossed a boundary, don’t throw your partner under the bus with comments like “My wife didn’t like it when…” or “My husband doesn’t want you to…” That is a cop-out. It completely absolves you of any involvement in the matter and leaves room for divisive tactics to penetrate. Instead, present a united front with “we-centric” verbiage. “We didn’t like x,y,z” or “We were made to feel uncomfortable when x,y,z happened.”
