I grew up in the YU/MO world while my wife identifies with the Yeshivish world. There are definitely hashkafic issues that we disagree on (not halachik issues –unless you consider wearing a black hat a halachik issue). Ultimately, with our kids we choose to send them to more yeshivish places even though I have my personal reservations. We have been married almost 15 years and are able to make compromises on almost every hashkafic issue. She prefers to listen to Torah AnyTime and I prefer YU Torah. But basically, because we both have the same goal of growing closer to hashem, it works for us.
