In his world there is nothing wrong, if he behaves normally he expects that you will fall in line. It's worked every other time, why not this time.
The more you change you, the more he will be confused.
Just keep doing your thing, he will get the message or not, does not really matter as long as you keep moving forward.
I call it the baby duck, a baby duck just puts its little head down and keeps going, if it encounters obstacles it just goes over, under, or around them, rain or snow, sunny or cloudy baby duck keeps on moving toward his target.
So when things get tough just be that baby duck....
Big hugs,
