It means you shouldn't worry so much! Haha, sweetheart, what makes you feel threatened. He is exasperated with the fights you keep having and doesn't want them to take a toll on your relationship. It doesn't sound like you have any reason to be worried, so give him the benefit of the doubt. :)

He's defensive because he loves his kid, and still feels a connection to the mother because she had his child. And, ust for a repeat, he does not want these (petty, in his mind) fight to weaken the bond between you.

He's just saying straight up that they aren't a threat to you. That they aren't taking him away from you. You shouldn't feel threatened by them.

Why do you mention them? It's ok for him to be defensive of them if you are saying something that he might take offensive. I mean it his is child and mother of his child.

I don't think anyone can help you much until you are honest about what your problem with his child and that child's mother is.

What your boyfriend is saying is pretty straightforward - If I had to take a guess, I'd say whatever fights you and he are having, he doesn't want to have those fights anymore.

Why does your boyfriend think you are threatened by them?
Why are you arguing about his child and her mother?
