[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I practice [b]a near textbook style of authoritative parenting. [/b] Spouse practices permissive parenting. To spouse, I appear authoritarian relative to their position, so spouse often takes jabs at me for being authoritarian. In my spouse's eyes, it's relative. [/quote] I don't see how this is possible if there is a visible change in your voice and demeanor when you are in something identifiable and distinguishable from your norm that you refer to as "full parenting mode." That combination of facts is inconsistent with any of the parenting education I have received, much of it focused on this permissive--authoritative--authoritarian spectrum and how each tends to play out.
