When parents disagree on discipline and teenagers exploit the divide

My teenage daughter and I have been in constant conflict for months and my husband thinks I'm too hard on her while I think he's too permissive, so now she's learned to play us against each other. We all know what's happening but we can't seem to stop the cycle and it's affecting our whole family dynamic.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Misaligned parenting approaches are creating opportunities for manipulation that everyone recognizes but feels powerless to address without fundamental changes.
