Zi and Trish (2 yr old twins) don't have any routines - 'they sleep when they and where they want to and eat when they are hungry. The twins parents want the children to be free spirits. The twins have found it difficult to adjust to the child care routines.

1. Identify the likely differences beliefs/ practices that may create tension

I have answered the questions but am not sure if I am on the right track
