What to do when Parenting Styles Clash
Parenting is an amazing journey with its own ups and downs. Most parents would agree that they have their children’s best interest at heart however, they might quantify ‘best’ differently.
You may have a lot in common with your partner but most often than not, your parenting styles may differ or even clash.
#TheSitDownParenting unpacks different styles of parenting and ways to make them work to avoid sending mixed signals to your children.
