When parents disagree on how to handle a difficult teenager

My teenage daughter and I used to be close but now every conversation becomes a fight and my husband thinks I'm too hard on her while I think he's too permissive and we're all just hurting each other instead of helping.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with Love and justice — can love be fair??”
