[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you the problematic parent or the reasonable one?[/quote]

The reasonable one. I'm just trying to understand the implications.

I want someone to be able to work with both parents and I'm trying to better understand if this is a parent issue or a doctor issue.

Obviously it's easier to only communicate and coordinate with one person. But I would think this is somewhat normal and find the request a little odd. [b]They didn't elaborate, only to say the other parent paints a very different picture of the situation. [/b]

I understand the importance of continuity of care, but again- communicating treatment plan to multiple caregivers isn't that unusual. [/quote]

If you and your partner aren't on the same page about what is happening, and the information you give is incompatible with each other, there isn't a lot the doctor can do.

If that can't be fixed, it sounds like a good idea to look for someone who is willing and able to work with a family where everyone isn't on the same page. It's fine for you to leave, and it's fine for them to encourage you to do so. If the relationship between provider and patients isn't working, then it isn't working. No shame there. [/quote]
