[quote=Anonymous]Usually in our house, the more conservative opinion wins if everything else is equal. Like if DD is invited to go on vacation with a friend, and I think it's fine but DH thinks she's too young, she wouldn't be allowed to go. Or if one of us thinks she needs to study more for a test and the other feels she can determine if she's prepped enough on her own, we'd tell her to study a bit more.

The exception to that is when one of us feels very strongly about a situation. DH wasn't a fan of my parents taking the kids to Disney World for their 5th birthday presents. He didn't have a great reason, just felt it was overindulgent. I felt strongly that it was a great way for our kids to bond with my parents and he relented. He feels strongly that they need to read certain books that are commonly read in our culture (but not assigned at their school). I don't really care, but he thinks it's important so I encouraged the kids to read them.

We don't disagree over major issues often thankfully. [/quote]
