What's love got to do with it? When there is no respect.

My question is should, an "I love you" erase all the times disrespectful things are said and done?

First, read this info. Dont trust the landlord or what they say.
Dont take this lightly. Lead is dangerous to adults also, just not kids. If the lead paint is disturbed, there could be lead dust
