Scenario

When partners disagree about teenage social media concerns

My husband thinks I'm being paranoid about social media and our teenage daughter, but I see what's happening to her mood and sleep and friendships, and he just sees me being the 'mean parent' who wants to take everything away. We're supposed to be partners in this but it feels like we're on opposite teams.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Parents are fracturing their partnership by positioning themselves as protector versus advocate instead of finding shared wisdom.
