How to navigate family intermittent fasting when everyone has different needs

Our family agreed to try intermittent fasting together as a way to reset our relationship with food and time, but my teenage daughter is secretly eating in her room and my wife thinks I'm being too rigid about the schedule. What started as a shared healing practice has become another source of tension and I don't know if I should abandon it or find a way to make it work for all of us.

More people experience this than they realize.
