[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the problem is his parenting style, and not your relationship with him, I don't see how giving him half time full autonomy with the children solves a single problem. And it seems like teens will want to spend more than half time with the "fun" parent. [/quote] I am not sure what the solution is, but you would be surprised at how much this kind of dynamic affects the kids. I have a friend whose kids thinks she is a bitch and their dad is perfect because he is like OP's husband. I sincerely think that her kids would be better off in two separate houses(divorced parents) with different expectations than this mess where their parents disagree on parenting(imagine a guy with a phd arguing that teenagers should not be asked to read-"they will read if they feel like it." I never suggest divorce because I am not sure if I am right about divorcing as a solution.[/quote]
