When couples struggle to apply screen time research consistently

My partner and I are trying to model healthy screen use for our kids based on research about parental behavior, but we have completely different work demands and social needs around devices. The studies say parents should be consistent but they don't account for the fact that one of us is remote and one travels constantly.
