Here's a challenge for you: try and close a door in your house without making a sound. No knocking the door against the jamb. No clicking the latch. No noise. Not that easy, right? Believe it or not, it can be easier to do with someone on the other side of the door pulling in the OPPOSITE direction. Gentle force in the opposite direction will make for a softer close, but it takes tremendous coordination from both sides, each side over or undercompensating based on what they feel as both sides pull.

Coparenting is no different. Without the proper balance, the "door" isn't going to close without a sound. And with too much pull from one side or the other, both sides lose control.
