[quote=Anonymous]op here - got busy and forgot about this post until now. The screen poster was not me Our house isn't really set up for them them to do things in their room but its worth a shot to try that. While the 5 year old can be irritating (very loud, wacky humor etc), its mainly the 7 year old that sparks it with competing for my attention, trying to one up his brother and make sure he's "better" on everything, having big reactions to the 5yos obnoxious behavior etc. It feels like by 8:45 every weekend morning I'm trying to get them out of the house as quickly as possible because we're all already grouches from the fighting and then repeat for the afternoon. They get along much better out at a park or museum or something and either play well together or do their own thing more, but its exhausting to never be able to have a more low key day and I think they'd benefit from that too if we could find a way to do it without spiraling[/quote]
