Ha ha, yes, this is kind of a ridiculous argument. Ironically, I spent all last week arguing with my 5-year-old and went out to see this movie in the frame of mind of desperately needing to escape my own children. But I was actually kind of relieved that the movie didn't portray parenting is this totally awful, soul-sucking thing.
I don't remember them talking a lot about parenting details, but I had a general sense that they were on the same page on things, that they shared values, and agreed on things like religion. There were miscommunications and probably things that came up that they didn't anticipate, but I didn't see that as a huge problem for them. It seemed like they were coparenting a lot. But, I think the movie didn't really spend much time on that section, so it's hard to tell. A lot was glossed over.
