Can you stop your children from fighting with each other?

All siblings fight, if its not about one thing its about another, especially in families that have more than 2 children, they will fight about stupid stuff and they will fight about some serious stuff. First of all you should let your kids know that fighting isnt the solution to the problem, it just makes it worse.

Start by having house rules about fighting and make sure that the kids follow these rules. Remind the children that life is too short to fight and be angrywith one another. Let each child know you know how they feel, tell them stories about you and your siblings if needed, which could also get them to calm down while your telling a story. Expressing your frustrations to them doesntmean you have to yell, if you need to take a minute before talking to each child, so that you will not yell or be angry.

Another way to geet them to stop fighting is to threaten to separate them if they continue to fight, more than likely they will stop because they would rather stay together them be separated. This will happen more if they share a room and they are fighting over each other possessions, in this case you may want to designate there own space so that will minimize the fighting between them.

Also you should give each child there own one on one time with you so that they don’t feel that they have to fight for there parents attention, you should also never compare them to each other or that there a like, they want to be different from each other not the same.
