Hi SusanJ,
A lot of communities have child transfer locations that they call "monitored exchange centers" in them now, so one parent can drop off a child and the other pick them up without them having to see each other. They tend to be at the same places that provide supervised visitation for non-custodial parents. For example, here's a transfer location for Maryland:

I mean, if it's possible to motivate her to change her behavior for the health of her child. And if she's resistant, I'm sure there are plenty of articles on the web about how it's harmful to argue like that in front of children.
Just some ideas. I'm sorry your brother has to go through this. It sounds really painful for everyone involved.
