I have two children. 2 years old and a 3 year old both boys. Issue when they fight is my youngest is deaft and i tried to explain to my other son to be kind, or trade, share and take turns. If one does not want to share it’s ok and go to another toy. But my oldest he seems to like it when he sees his brother playing by himself and just tear away the toy from his younger brother whichh they end up smacking or scratching each other then both starts to cry. This happens a lot!!

I only have one child, but remember not so fondly the fights between my sister and I, how much my mother resented us for our constant bickering. I found this @ http://affimity.com/#/sharedPost/2/8331. Perhaps my birth was that much of an annoyance to my sister, lol, but my mother always dealt with us well. She would separate us, then have us talk it out. Now, my sister and I have an excellent relationship, but we were always bickering as children. I now admire my mother for dealing so well!

Last night I was disheartened by all the negativity flowing around our household. I have a very angry yelling negativity focused exhusband and the girls have just spent a lot of time with him.

As I was putting the two girls to bed, one was saying to me about the other ‘I hate her.’ I said, ‘well, that makes me very sad. I saw her do at least one nice thing for you today, and I know you did at least one nice thing for her today. Can you think of anything nice you did for her today?’ and when she did, I asked ‘Can you think of anything nice she did for you?’ which she did. I then repeated the questioning with the other daughter, saying ‘It makes me sad when you two fight and say you dislike each other. Can you think of something nice you did for her?’ Then we repeated the ‘Nice things we did for each other’ discussion this morning. Everyone started off the day in a much better frame of mind.

This is actually happening most of the time. But parents should know how to govern their emotions, in that way they might end the argument peacefully.

Ask your sibling what strong areas he/she thinks are found in your relationship (ex: you both are good at sharing). Wait for him/her to be finished talking, then make a few comments of your own as well. However, do not take too much time in this for there are the negative points you must face as well. Also, your sibling might get bored of this conversation and want to leave, possibly sparking another fight between you two.
