Many things can be a part of a person's everyday reality post-divorce. If they have kids, one such thing can be co-parenting with their ex. While one would hope the co-parenting relationship with one's ex would go smoothly, this doesn't always happen. Conflicts can arise between co-parents over many different things. Some examples of things that can be sources of conflict among divorced parents when it comes to co-parenting include:
- Scheduling matters, such as last-minute scheduling changes.
- Household rules, such rules regarding bedtimes and discipline.
- Inconsistencies in overall household structure for the kids between the parents.
- Differences in parenting strategies between the parents.
