Arguments and fights are the worst, I hate them. If she doesn't feel like she can trust either of you, then she won't talk at all - which would he prefer?
I also imagine his response, whilst completely OTT, was partly to do with the fact that his baby girl is now old enough to have boyfriends and go out on dates etc. I don't know if any parent, especially dads with daughters, likes having that realisation.
I'm not trying to condone his behaviour - I do think it was OTT and totally unhelpful.
I hope you're both talking now and he's being a bit more reasonable about it. How are you feeling? <3
