Sibling Rivalry

WaffleOur kids fight over everything. Any menial inequity is a big deal. This morning Megan and Paul were fighting, crying/whining/punching, because of the last waffle in the house. They weren’t willing to share it… one of them had to have the whole stupid waffle.

No one has to convince me that we are born with a sin nature. I love my kids, I’d do anything for them. But they gotta figure this whole fighting over nothing thing out. Mom and dad are going crazy.

    Yeah, that was one idea. We actually gave them both cereal. These little spats are annoying. They go away, right?

    Yes, the fighting does go away. When they are teens they learn plot together and gang up on their parents instead. Does that make you feel better? How much did you fight with your brother? My niece did a sharing chart. Whenever she noticed one of the kids sharing with his/her brother or sister they got a star. When they received so many stars they got a special date with mom or dad, or you could just beat them.
