Why Our Kids Fight and What We Can Do About It

9/6/2018

 
Picture
How many times do parents hear one of their kids screaming, “Dad! Michael won’t stop picking on me!” And then Michael whines, “I am not!  Lisa started it! Why do I always get blamed for everything around here?” What are we to do when our kids are bickering, at each other’s throats and try to make us referees?  
 
The first step toward success is understanding why siblings bicker and fight.  Sibling conflicts are a pretty typical and normal part of family life. In fact, one might argue that these conflicts are good training for life. Another reason siblings fight is because it gets them attention and control. In fact, one might argue that these conflicts are good training for life. That is, by negotiating childhood conflicts with their brothers or sisters, our kids learn valuable skills for getting along with others in the real world if we as parents model working out our own disagreements in a cooperative manner and guide our children to take responsibility to resolving conflicts in a healthy manner.
 
Whether you:
  • are in the beginning stages of family life with young children and feeling overwhelmed
  • have a relatively happy family and want to find ways to improve what you are doing
  • are in the middle of painful challenges with a son or daughter
  • want to support your adult children raise your grandchildren
you can find principles and tools to help you raise responsible, loving and happy children as well as find more Real Love for yourself.
