Who's more strict with the kids? You or you SO? And if it's you, do you feel occasionally like "the bad guy"?

My husband was a lot more strict with our children than was I, and I never felt like I was the bad guy. I liked that their dad backed me up, especially when their offences involved disrespecting their mother.

i am but i just want my son to know that i'm doing it for a reason not to be mean... but sometimes i do feel like a bad guy cause he'll go tell on me to his dad lol...

Answer by Lynnsae at 7:01 PM on Jan. 4, 2011
I am the strict one and I'm rarely backed up by my husband. I always feel like the bad guy. I know that it's the responsible thing to do and I'm just being a good parent but it still hurts when they choose their dad over me.
