How do you maintain parental unity when you disagree?
Well-intentioned, good-hearted parents disagree sometimes. But what do you do if one of you has already taken action? What you don’t do is make critical comments in front of the kids about how the other handled it. Or even worse, reverse the decision. Instead have a parent meeting behind closed doors, and listen. Find out why they did what they did. Then share your thoughts about what might happen next time. Parenting is a live-and-learn experience. Just make sure you live and learn together.
