There are some parenting ideas that I have read about that I like the idea of such as, making a big deal about good things (like sitting on your bottom on the chair) vs a big deal about bad things (like standing on the chair). I have a hard time talking to my husband about them because either:

a. I feel like I am telling him what to do
or b. he will feel like I am telling him what to do.

We are a team. We are both good parents. Sometimes I'll come up with a thought or read something I like the idea of that I want to try and I'm afraid I'm coming off wrong to him. I don't want him to automatically think, "She thinks I'm a bad parent."

Full disclosure: I have been known to say things like, "Don't say that to her!" and I know that bugs him. We have talked about how it bothers him when I "tell" him how to parent, even if I don't mean to do it. I've been working on this and am looking for suggestions.

How do you suggested parenting ideas to your SO?
