OK. The 後 in that sentence will be read あと.

よく両親と話し合ったあと決めたい。

The 話し合う needs to be put in the past tense even if the talk hasn't even started as the speaker says this.

We need to add に or で immediately after the あと.
___________

In order for 後 to be read ご, it must be directly preceded by an on-reading noun.

夕食後(ゆうしょくご)
数分後(すうふんご)
死後(しご)

The only exception that I can think of to this general "rule" is found in the phrase その後(ご).


Your Japanese proficiency shall be in direct proportion
to your true interest in the Japanese Mind.
