[quote=Anonymous]Can we be realistic about this? I've got two boys and they are constantly playing wildly or fighting wildly. Often, these things look the same. I want them to be nice to each other (I would even accept ignoring the other) - but am I really supposed to discipline/comment every time one calls the other a name or shoves a little, not to hurt, but to annoy. God, do they absolutely love to annoy one another. Half the time if one calls the other a poo-poo head the one being called the name laughs. But the other half of the time they're calling me to tattle. I just want to say - look, I don't care until there's blood. But then I worry that one (the older, oddly, who is less physical and more sensitive) will feel kind of bullied because he has a tendency to feel the world is against him. It's exhausting. And boring. They are ruining our summer. [/quote]
