A reader asked me a couple of parenting questions that honestly just come down to the question: What do I do when my partner and I parent differently? This is a great topic to explore, and I hit a lot of interesting points to think about and discuss with your partner, including why women often act like parenting gurus, why this approach doesn't work, how there are many different ways to parent, the hard stop on when to give consequences, and how acting like a team is more important than any one parenting decision.
