I try to convince my ex-partner.

My experience:

I send him the report from the school, as well as the teacher’s recommendation. I tell myself that he’ll understand once he has proof. I make sure my tone is calm, hoping that he’ll think about our daughter’s well-being. He writes back that I always make mountains out of molehills and my disability has made me see everything in a negative light. He threatens to ask for sole custody “if I keep going on like this.”

Explanation:

Even after the separation, the abuser’s control continues via insults. In this scenario, the abuser intentionally uses the victims’ disability to question her parental fitness.
