[quote=Anonymous]At our house, both DH & I have had times where we are locked into arguments with our DC (17yo), and to be fair, sometimes we get into it with each other too. The three of us (parents + teen) agreed that if we see the other two in a pitched battle of wills, the third person can tell the other two to take a beat. The topic is instantly shelved, but open for further discussion when tempers are cooler. It works. And it doesn't make anyone feel like they are the perpetual referee. [/quote]
