[quote=Anonymous]I have fighters in my family too and I say - without a lot of conviction that this will work - either 1. Ignore them. Let them fight. Put the 8 year old in the front or to one side and let them learn to work it out. This is what the experts say to do although I don't have the patience. 2. Pay them. Give them a cookie if you make it home without drama. 3. Set expectations. "You will not fight on the car ride home. I do not want to spend my time driving children who cannot behave. I expect you to behave civilly. It is too dangerous to drive with you fighting and I do not want to get into an accident."[/quote]
