When I was practicing law as a litigation attorney, I had clients who were abused day after day after day when their exes sent them abusive and sometimes vulger emails and texts. The vulgarity was intertwined with talking about the children, requiring my clients to read the message to obtain the necessary information. One client in particular had an extremely vulgar ex who sent her nasty vulgar inappropriate messages. She had to decide if she was just going to suck it up and do her best to ignore it, or if she wanted to pay me thousands of dollars to ask the court to make him stop. She opted to just suck it up. We eventually used the emails against her ex in court. However, she could not afford to continue going back to court because of abusive messages. And it didn't seem like judges were doing much about it anyway.
ProperComm was not created at that time. However, now it is. ProperComm is a company that edits email and text messages between high conflict families. And, more importantly, the service is actually FREE to victims of Domestic Violence if ordered that way by the court.
I created this company in an effort to stop the abuse that often continued after divorce. I used to wonder, how many times does someone need to get divorced before the abuse stops. Sometimes it doesn't. But ProperComm can at least minimize the daily abuse by editinig abusive, hostile, inappropriate messages.
EXAMPLE
Before ProperComm

Courts nationwide order parents to communicate through ProperComm.
ProperComm not only protects victims by eliminating the abuse from messages, ProperComm is also a teaching tool. When a message is sent, the author of the message receives the original message, the message that was sent to the receiver and tips on why the message was edited. The receiver only receives the edited message and therefore is never exposed to the abuse.
ProperComm charges by word count, therefore the author of the message has incentive to minimize the number of words.
ProperComm charges $1 for each text for the first 70 characters and $1 for each 70 characters thereafter.
ProperComm charges $5 for each email for the first 70 words and $5 for each 70 words thereafter.
ProperComm also provide a certificate of completion, upon request, to parties who meet ProperComm's requirements of appropriate communication for 90 consecutive days with at least 20 emails or 40 emails/texts combined or 40 texts.
