A 14 year old girl, Natalie, has divorced parents each with their own home. They have 50/50 physical custody and therefore the g
irl spends half her time at her mother's and half her time at her father's. Her mother allows her to have a belly piercing, eat what she wants, and stay out with her friends until 11pm. When she's at her father's house, he does not allow any body piercings, limits her sugar foods and insists on vegetables with each meal, and allows her to stay out with her friends until 9:30pm. The parents don't get along well and each insists on their own rules. How does this girl adjust to the varying rules? How can this family solve the problem of different rules at each household? What would you do if you were the father? What would you do if you were the mother? Address the issue in a paragraph or two in a solution-oriented manner.
Differences in the position of the girl's father and mother in relation to what she can or can do can confuse her intensely, in addition to promoting discontent with the situation in which she is inserted, for this reason, so that she can if you adjust the various rules, you could talk to the parents so that they create a middle ground, or simply obey the rules of the mother when she is with the mother and obey the rules of the father when she is with the father, to avoid problems.
However, this situation is not correct. It is necessary that her father and mother leave the differences and intrigues between the two aside and talk about how best to raise and educate their daughter, without leaving the girl traumatized, confused and saddened by the whole situation. It is necessary that both the father and the mother put their pride aside and see that this type of behavior between them can generate bad results. That would be what I would do if I were in either place.
