I don't know how to word or explain that I don't want him doing that.


I am going to recommend you review the boundaries cheat sheet.

I also love Al Turtle on Boundaries, try googling that to get another way of looking at boundaries.

Boundaries need consequences and these can and must be enforced.

There is little use in having a boundary that is not enforceable. It merely seems weak and back tracking. Boundaries are about that which is under your own control.
