[quote=Anonymous]I have a 6 year old DS and 4 year old DD. For the past two years, they have fought constantly whenever they are together. Fortunately, DD is in daycare that remained open, so this is mostly an issue on nights and weekends. They are either making a massive mess that is destroying our house (ie, taking all the sheets out of everyone's rooms, every towel out of the linen closet, clothes out of dressers) or fighting. It turns physical with the very quickly. DH and I are at the end of our wits and it usually results in one of us yelling and then separating them. For example, this was today. DS got picked up from daycare. Arrived home. Within two minutes her and DS were fighting and throwing golf balls at each other. They were separated and put on time out. DH and I took them to their separate activities. DD and I got home first and she wash quietly playing in her room. I was doing work in the yard and DH and DS arrived home DH came into the backyard to speak to me and DS went into the house. Within 1 minute DD comes into the backyard crying hysterically saying that DS slapped her. We go inside and separate, within five minutes they are both running around the house making messes with snack bars. Lather, rinse, repeat, this is my life every evening and weekend. I don't know what to do to make the situation better but I feel like ages four and six are too old for this constant fighting and making mass nonsense.[/quote]
