Question lack of understanding and communication

I'm more or less at a loss.
My husband of 5 1/2 years is unable and/or unwilling to talk with my kids. 2 out of 3 still live here at home.
He has the biggest problem communicating with my 19 year old son. He doesn't talk to him at all.
This hurts me and makes me VERY ANGRY.
I have repeatedly tried to explain how this affects our home and our marraige and for some reason....he just doesn't get it.
Last night, I asked him if he had said anything to my son during the day.
He answered no. I asked if he doesn't find that strange. To live in a house with someone and not even speak to them......
I wasn't trying to pick a fight. I was trying to explain how our marraige could never work if this continues. Sooner or later I blow up about it because it is so unfair and damaging to my children. I either blow up or become silent.
Counseling is something he refuses to consider. This nonsense is something I just cannot continue. It gets me too angry.
