The bolded portion is somewhat misplaced. If you would re-read the whole message, you can sense that it does not flow smoothly. Here's a suggestion:
X,
I appreciate your recent efforts to resolve the education discussions.
I believe that disagreements will arise from time to time as to be expected with divorced people who bring various views to the table when it comes to co-parenting young children. I am willing to try and work things out with you that is in the best interests of the children. Please understand that it is not ideal to litigate every disagreement. It is not a reasonable nor practical thing to do at all.
There will be times when we may not necessarily agree on some issues. In my mind, being able to show mutual respect for some differences will be the foundation of a successful co-parenting relationship.
Your concerns about education are not misplaced. Bow is a top school system. I am willing to collaborate on a new plan for pick up and drop offs to implement into the parenting plan, once we discuss ideas and suggestions.
For me, what I would like to see from you is respectful communications that are constructive, positive, and supportive that will be beneficial for the two of us that are the hallmark of a mutually supportive (within reason) and respectful co-parenting relationship, which will support the children’s future. I am sure there will be some bumps along the way. However, I am receptive to exchanging information in order to move forward.
I would appreciate your patience, understanding, and respect for this process. And if there is something I say that makes you uncomfortable, I'd certainly appreciate if you bring it to my attention because I want this to be a two-way street.
There is one matter that needs to be raised here. I’ve known about OM since before the divorce, it has been painful for me to watch this unfold.I would ask that OM not be around or stop by my house ever again. I am not comfortable with it at all. Please do not bring him by the house again, I believe this is a reasonable request.
Thank you for listening and trying to keep the lines of communication open.
