Ways to escalate situations where words have to be spoken

Please can you share examples of how you de-escalate situations where you simply have to say what needs to be said. Do you just say it and let the chips fall where they may?

Can you perhaps give some examples of recurring conflicts that come up for you?

Asking him to do anything
Redirecting him or his thoughts about our BPD daughter
When he's yelling or lecturing a child unkindly
When a joint expense needs paying
When I want to buy something not approved by him
Examples...could ask anything.
