Criticize My Parenting?

Why Does My Partner

“Why does my partner criticize my parenting?” If you’re in a partnership, even without children, there’s a good chance some version of this has come up for you. Whether it’s parenting, pet care, finances, sex, you name it, both you and your partner are carrying a bunch of (often unconscious) assumptions about how something should be done. Coming out of conflict means moving from those implicit beliefs to explicit communication, but how do you do that without blame, power struggles, and hurt feelings? Well, that’s what this whole season on communication is all about!

Quotes:

"What are old needs, longings, meanings that are being met when you want to parent “your way?”

“[What’s] hard is where we get stuck inside of ourselves. The hard is not how we navigate it together. That actually undoes aloneness”

When you’re having a communication issue, can you do a YOU-turn and ask yourself, what kind of communication are you trying to achieve?”
