My partner tells me I am too soft, I believe in positive reinforcement etc, try not to shout, be calm, explain but kids are all too often kids and bloody annoying. He seems to think our eldest in particular (7) doesn't listen to him and is rude and disobedient and she needs to learn. He is lovely lots of the time, hands on all the rest but he shouts, he has little patience, he goes on and on at them, giving no space for kids to process info. He talks negatively about them to me in front of them. I hate this, he says they need to know and honesty is important. He expects instant results. I am at end of my tether, don't know what to do feel like the gap in our parenting styles is just too big. Anyone else feel like this? Any advice?? Help :(((
