RESIST Q&A // Caregiver Clashes: Parenting on the same page with partners + caregivers
from Upbringing · host Hannah + Kelty
We’re all going through a tough transition right now as we adjust to life at home… with kids… and work… and for many us, other caregivers. Our unique childhoods, unconscious beliefs and clashing approaches can increase the conflict, which can create stress for us, tension in our relationships and confusion for our kids. We’re all on the hunt for answers, but are beginning to realize that the questions are paramount to progress! Today we explore 10 ways we’re working to better understand and respectfully communicate with the other caregivers in our lives so that these tough times can keep us close instead of push us apart. The hard stuff is the good stuff.
