If you're navigating a custody dispute, your text thread is often Exhibit A.
When emotions are running high, use the B.I.F.F. method before sending any message to an ex or co-parent:
B – Brief: Stick to the essential point. No essays.
I – Informative: Focus purely on dates, times, and logistics.
F – Friendly (or Neutral): Keep tone polite and professional. Avoid sarcasm.
F – Firm: Be clear about your boundary or answer without leaving room for endless back-and-forth.
What you say matters but in court, how you say it matters just as much.
