Trista and Ryan’s differing parenting styles
In an interview with Babble, Trista Sutter spoke about a recent scare in their household that clearly showed the two parents very different parenting styles.
Trista revealed: “I’m more of a protector; Ryan would probably say I’m a bit overboard. I worry too much, whereas he thinks if they fall and bump their heads, that’s a learning lesson.”
Trista gave an example: the couple’s eldest child Maxwell Alston, 2 1/2, was accidentally scratched by the family dog when he was just one — and while Trista took to tears, Ryan sprung into action. “He had to get stitches. I freaked out, but Ryan turned into the firefighter that he is and scooped up Max and took him away, totally calm. In situations where there’s some sort of danger, he’s definitely the one who steps up to the plate because I lose it in a crying, motherly sort of way,” she said.
Trista and Ryan are also parents to daughter Blakesley Grace, 1.
