One issue to discuss is parents that have different parenting style backgrounds. This occurs in many relationships, where the individuals have had different experiences with parenting styles. For example, the mom was raised with authoritative and the father was raised with authoritarian. The parents should really discuss and communicate their differences to provide the best parenting style for their own children.
How can parents work out the difference in parenting styles from their childhood, if each parent wants to contribute their own style?
How do they handle situations, such as discipline, if the parenting styles are varied?
