Reduce Sibling Fighting
Your kids seem to get along sometimes. But
during other times, they
…argue about small (and big) issues
…compete over who got more, who needs more, who is better
…say disrespectful things to and about each other
…do whatever they can to get on each other’s nerves

“I would say particularly for the women who are listening…we typically fall into that
space of, “Okay well I’ll take the hit. I’ll do all of the sacrifice. I think the latest
statistic are showing it’s like 30% of working women are having to leave the
workforce right now.” Watch the interview replay.

“My 7 year old daughter and I seem to have a battle of the wills. She requests we drive to school because it’s too cold and I will tell her we’re walking to school, as we always do and she can wear warmer clothes. She will whine, complain and beg, basically fighting me about walking. I hold my boundary but after awhile the anger inside builds up. I often can hold it together but at times I have lashed out at her in anger. I don’t want to do this, but I feel like she pushes and pushes to get her way and does not respect the rules or boundaries. How do I grow in navigating these situations? They are a common occurrence. Thank you so much!”

“I used to think of it in terms of getting my child to behave. Now I think of it as, ‘what does my child need right now to be successful?’ This change of mindset makes parenting a lot less stressful.”
