He says something without really coming out and saying it directly (you're keeping me from seeing my kids), by evasively saying it this way

When you respond , "I'm not keeping you from them," he's able to say, "What? I never said that."

It's just a form of implying something so heavily but carefully wording it so that when you infer correctly what he was in fact saying, he gets to cover his @ss by pointing out he never actually said that. It's a game. "Technically, you can't nail me; nyah, nyah, nyah"

Hope I cleared that up (though I think I may have muddied the waters even more) whistle
