Two Parenting Styles, One Family, and Conflicting Boundaries.

Episode Summary

Dr. Becky talks to a mom whose co-parent has a very different parenting style than she does about how they can get on the same page.

Episode Notes

What do you do if your co-parent parents very differently than you do? What if they can’t tolerate your kids' pushback and hold boundaries in the same way as you? And how do you stop feeling resentful in your marriage? This is such a common parenting problem. Dr. Becky talks to a mom struggling to get on the same page as her partner.
