Scenario

When parents disagree on supporting a struggling teenager

Our teenage daughter is struggling with depression and my husband and I have completely different instincts about how strict versus supportive to be. Every parenting decision feels like a referendum on our different childhoods and I'm terrified we're failing her while we figure ourselves out.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Their child's pain has exposed fundamental differences in how they understand care, protection, and healing.
