Are you on board with your spouse on your parenting style children? or do you clash in the way you?

discipline or try to help your children?Are you on board with your spouse on your parenting style children? or do you clash in the way you?
I am harder on the kids than their dad is. He is more likely to let them stay up past bedtime or forget to clean their rooms but when it comes to the big stuff like education, dating etc we are both on the same page and on the rare occassions we do disagree on something we never do it in front of the kids instead we tell them we will think about it and then discuss it away from them and we never go against the other one. If I tell the kids no video games until their room is clean he miht think I am being to hard but he doesn't go behind my back and allow them to do it anyway. The kids need to see a united front or else they will figure out at an early age how to play their parents against each other.Are you on board with your spouse on your parenting style children? or do you clash in the way you?
our styles are mostly the same but not completely. but we always back each other up. my kids know that if one parent already said no to something, there's no point asking the other parent (and in fact they'll get in trouble for doing so unless they explain that they already asked and got a ';no';)... even if the other parent would have said yes if asked first.





on the rare occasions when we disagree and it seems important to one of us, we work it out when the kids aren't around.
I am their mother





I am the one will be blamed, by the rest of the world, if they turn out to be anything less than perfect





no man, including my spouse, is going to tell me how to raise my children
he's not a discipliner, and i am. I pretty much look like the bad guy, but to be honest, i dont care.. maybe when they are older they will look back and realize i only did it because i cared.. i realize it about my mom every day.
Not at all. We agree on almost everything.


He is more grumpier than me. I have a laid back approach and allow freedom. He gets grumpy when they are bouncing under his feet to long, while I encourage it.


Kids are good fun. Life is way to short not to have heaps of fun.
