😇 Let’s be honest, kids butt head with each other all the time and at the same time they crack up so hard with each other all the time.

Sometimes, it evens surprises you how what one of them is doing that seems ordinary/boring to you seems like the best comic entertainment for the other.

When you feel like what your kids do most of the time is rivalry between themselves.. remember there are plenty moments of pure happiness too.

All these moments are normal part of them learning to emote, communicate and work on how to resolve their issues.

Please let’s try, as parents, to give them the space,time and energy to work on them without been so fast in interfering.

It’s a work in progress not to jump into their rivalry every single time just at the start but I am learning how to unlearn this habit and allow them learn to attempt sort their issue first before I get into it. I will tell you I am seeing progress.

In the past, once I hear “hian@ crying from Makayla, I am quick to yell from where I am “ what is it ,DeShawn? Or “what did you do to her , kene?

Fast forward to now, I consciously and intentionally take some deep breathe and most time they resolve it on their own. If I need to intervene, I go in as a neutral referee instead of already thinking the elder one did something 🫣🫣🫣

What is your own way of settling sibling rivalry? I will like to know
