Two Parenting Styles, One Family, and Conflicting Boundaries - Revisit

You and your partner love your kids. So why does it sometimes
feel like you're parenting in completely different worlds?

In this listener-favorite episode from the Good Inside archives,
Dr. Becky talks with a mom named Carmella who feels stuck between
two parenting styles: she's the one holding the routines and
boundaries, while her husband tends to be more flexible in the
moment. The result? More conflict, more emotional labor, and a
growing sense that she's carrying the weight of consistency
alone.

Together, they unpack what kids actually need when parents
approach things differently, how to talk about parenting without
turning your partner into the enemy, and why being "on the same
page" doesn't mean becoming the same parent.

Because parenting was never meant to be carried by one person.
