Researching a protection order

Apparently things only go smoothly when a chaperone is present. Nothing new just the usual threats,intimidation  and yelling. Deep down I know there is nothing he can do to take them away from me but it still hurts to have to deal with it all. Can't he just grow up and realize we will have to be a part of each others lives for the next 15 years wether we like it or not.
