💨 Abstract

The article discusses predictors of one's partner being a good parent and compatible parenting style. Key indicators include emotional intelligence, communication, humor, self-compassion, and adaptability. Good parenting partners manage conflict healthily, communicate effectively, think creatively, and practice self-care. Expert Julia Goodall advises that while traits like kindness and good cooking are helpful, they do not fully predict parenting efficacy.
