[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The kids rise to these (low) expectations - I have to beg them to get ready for school in the morning and multiple times each day, they behave in ways that seem more like a couple of toddlers than a kindergarten kid and a 5th grader. [b]For example, the younger one will grab the older one's Lego and deliberately break it so that his brother will chase him around the house; they both seem to have a marvelous time doing this and it always coincides with when we're trying to get them to go get ready for bed or school.[/b] [/quote] This actually sounds to me like very age-appropriate behavior for kindergarten/fifth-grade siblings -- alas.[/quote]
