A: Please review:
  • Ignore the comments initially, and continue with your conversation.
  • Try to understand his point of view, and repeat it to him for clarification.
  • Find out why he feels this way, and ask if it is what he actually meant.
  • Tell him you do not agree with his opinion, and ask him to change it.
