[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also have 3 kids, but the youngest is 2.5 and too young to fight/compete with the other 2. My older two fight sometimes, but definitely get along more and are in each other’s corners (ALWAYS). I don’t know if it will change since they are still young (6 and 8), but the only thing I can think of is that I punish both when they fight. I don’t care who is right and who is wrong. Occasionally, (if one hurts the other for example) I will ask the “aggressor” to apologize to the “victims”… but usually they are both somewhat guilty.

My kids also really like to play together… maybe because we don’t do too many play dates?
Maybe it will all change in a few years, but so far, my kids are definitely each other’s rocks [/quote]

Also, I would not tolerate one sibling being happy for the other’s failures. This never happened to me or my kids and I can’t imagine why that would be. I don’t think this is the case with strangers either.

I am happy if I win, but not because the other person lost.. this is weird and shows a lack of empathy in my opinion…[/quote]
