Over deze aflevering

<p>This week on Blended, Kate Ferdinand is joined by co-hosts Cilla and Nathalie to unpack a dilemma that so many stepparents silently struggle with: discipline.</p><br><p>A listener writes in feeling completely overridden by her partner when it comes to setting boundaries with his children. She tried to discipline calmly and respectfully&nbsp;but he jumped in, reversed her decision, and made her feel like she had no right to step in at all.</p><br><p>The&nbsp;trio discusses what discipline should look like in blended homes, and how stepparents can feel confident in their role without overstepping. Is discipline only for biological parents? What message does it send to children when their stepparent’s authority is constantly undermined?</p><br><p>They also explore how couples can get on the same page when it comes to parenting, the difference between discipline and telling off, and why real teamwork is essential</p><br><p>Follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/blended/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@blended </a>on Instagram to share your story.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
