Podcast Episode 86: Parenting on the Same Page with Amy McCready
It’s hard enough when you are trying to pick a place to go out to eat and no one is on the same page, but when you and your partner or co-parent aren’t on the same page…it can be downright agonizing!
In this episode, we’re joined by Amy McCready, the Founder of Positive Parenting Solutions and the creator of the 7-Step Parenting Success System online course. She is the author of two best-selling parenting books: If I Have to Tell You ONE MORE TIME and The “Me, Me, Me” Epidemic. She has two adult sons (age 24 and 22). Amy helps moms and dads become the parents they’ve always wanted to be.
We discuss with Amy how parents can identify what the real issue is causing their parenting struggles and how to best get on the same page and become a united front.
In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:
- What to do if you and your parenting partner have different parenting styles or philosophies.
- How to figure out what is really important to you in your parenting role.
- How to effectively communicate with your partner.
