My SO is almost never capable of having a speaking conversation especially if he feels “cornered”. His response is to raise his voice, and I’m not talking loud speaking. He screams and he does it all the time and makes comments in front of our 2 year old daughter.

I come from a home where I grew up with 2 parents who were always fighting and screaming and yelling and it really really stresses me out. Either he doesn’t give a single fuck about that or he just isn’t capable of having a calm conversation ever When I mention the screaming it’s always “because you’re so sensitive” or “because “you ____” basically he never just accepts fault that he can’t speak calmly.

It breaks my heart that he does it in front of our toddler, makes comments under his breath which she can hear and then has an attitude. Am I over reacting, or is this actually inappropriate?

How can I approach this differently with him? I’m at my wits end and I’m tired of getting spoken to like a child, feeling disrespected in front of my daughter. Advice please.
