[quote=Anonymous]Op, had a similar issue at the dinner table and used a combination of structured conversations and rewards for helping to solve it. So the only conversations allowed in the car were structured conversations led by me with clear answers that everyone participate in. So I would say - I am going to say a letter and then everyone will name a food which starts with that letter, etc. This means there is no room for argument, and gets them in the habit of not fighting all the time. I also did group rewards - so I would recognize when they were kind to each other and award points. When they hit the points number (as a group) everyone got a reward. Again, the idea is to build the habit of being kind to each other. It’s hard to “stop” behaviors, and easier to replace them with something. [/quote]
