So the big kids have been fighting nonstop lately. I've done timeouts, separating them, grounding them...nothing seems to work. And with homeschooling, they never get a break from each other. Finally I've found a rule that seems to be working:
If Child A hurts (hits, pushes, does something mean to be mean) Child B, then Child B gets to go into Child A's room and pick out whatever s/he wants to keep for FOREVER. Becca's usually the winner of this policy, but it has cut down on the amount of crying and fit throwing from her end of things.
Hopefully they get back to being friends soon!
