[quote=Anonymous]7 and 9 year old and the fighting is problematic here too. The scratching is the worst of it. They are like baby honey badgers going at each other. One thing that seemed to help when talking and consequences weren’t working was I told the child that is inflicting the most physical damage, that if they don’t find a way to manage themselves with their sibling when angry without physically hurting them, we will be bringing it up to their doctor. Not as a punitive thing, but as a serious way to help us help them find better ways to cope with conflict. I guess this sounded entirely embarrassing because they pleaded not to do that and it has gotten a lot better. No completely perfect, but I’m not as concerned someone is going to loose an eye anymore [/quote]
