[quote=Anonymous]Can you sort of do half and half? Like do a swim lesson on the early side and then come home and do quiet morning -- the activity and socializing of something like swim might chill them out enough to relax and not fight after that. What do they fight over? Is it just pestering each other and then getting into back and forth, or is there some more concrete source of conflict that could be addressed (i.e. fighting over access to an iPad, younger kid annoying older kid who wants to read, older kid getting bossy or demanding with younger kid, etc.)? To some extent this is just a function of parenting siblings and maybe it's an opportunity to work through some specific conflict and teach them some skills that will make all your lives easier in the future (even though it's more work now).[/quote]
