Scenario

When parents have different approaches to teen mental health

Our teenage daughter has been struggling with depression and anxiety, and my husband and I keep disagreeing about boundaries versus support - I want to give her space, he wants more structure. We're exhausting ourselves trying to help her while also managing our own fears.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who desperately want to help their child are letting their different instincts create inconsistency instead of united support.
