When you and your partner have parenting disagreements, staying calm and listening makes a difference. Talking privately instead of in front of the kids helps keep discussions productive. Understanding each other’s perspective and finding compromise strengthens the partnership, keeping the focus on raising happy, healthy children together.

The thing is that the two parents should understand that both mean well for the child even if the approach might be different. That would provide the basic foundation for them to sit down and melt their approaches together and unify them for the good of the children.
