We all have our own parenting styles, but what happens when one parent thinks the other is too strict? One husband (38m) decided to share his thoughts on his wife’s (37f) parenting style, suggesting she should lower her standards to be less overwhelmed. With three kids aged 12, 10, and 8, this mom is constantly feeling the pressure, but her husband believes she’s creating unnecessary stress for herself. Let’s dive into this family drama! ‍ ‍

Is Lowering Standards the Solution? ‍♂️

This husband believes his wife’s high standards for their kids are causing unnecessary stress in their lives. From morning routines to screen time limits, he thinks she’s making things harder on herself. He suggests that if she lowers her standards, she’ll be less overwhelmed and won’t need as much help. But is this the right approach, or is he just adding fuel to the fire? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…

Yeah literally! She’s tired because she’s doing the work of 2 parents while having her husband make her feel guilty. Typical ‘I didn’t even know she was unhappy’ when she snaps and wants a divorce.”
