What are some effective ways to communicate and enforce consequences for major infractions when the children transition between our two homes?

Effective communication about consequences for major infractions can be achieved through regular discussions and a shared document (or parenting app) outlining agreed-upon disciplinary measures. Both parents should consistently enforce these consequences, ensuring the children understand that the rules apply in both homes. Maintaining open lines of communication and providing updates on disciplinary actions can help both parents stay aligned and ensure the children receive consistent messages.
