[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to be really, really honest with yourself about what is "normal kid behavior" and what is not. Why is it so important to you to allow this kind of behavior on these specific days? The cliche is that people who say the things you're saying are lazy parents who don't want to make the effort, or that they're in denial about their kids' special needs. Really look at yourself here. It's fine for your kids to learn to work things out, but they have the other 362 days of the year for that. It's also fine to learn that some kids really don't like "tussles", and that getting along in a family means accepting that some people require a little extra carefulness. Those are fine life lessons for your children to learn.[/quote]
