When families disagree on guiding teens through faith questions

Our teenage daughter has started questioning everything about our family's faith tradition and my spouse wants to give her complete freedom while I feel like we should provide more guidance, and our different approaches are creating tension not just with her but between us. We're all kind of lost right now about how to navigate this together.
