Basically me and Dh have very different approaches to parenting and discipline. I feel he is too tough and very critical of our Ds and yet not with older Dsd or younger Ds.
Personally I grew up with a very critical father and to this day still question whether anything I do is good enough so I may be biased.
Ds is going through a tough stage where if he is told no at anything he just cries! It's very hard work but my approach is a firm no and an explanation of why followed by distraction. Dh likes to put him on the stairs and then constantly pick on what he is doing wrong. Ds is 3.9 and very forward for his age. Was a very quick talker and is wise beyond his years. We are all guilty of expecting too much of him because of this but Dh just doesn't seem to see it. He always says "well he should know better"
I've tried bringing all this up this morning and said I want to find a compromise as we both need to use the same approach so we don't confuse Ds. He took it as a personal attack on his parenting skills and that I think he's a bad father!
Sorry if this is long, any help would be appreciated.
