[quote=Anonymous]My brother and I had horrible physical fights. It is one thing when your ds is 9, but my 14 yr old is taller and heavier than I am. It won't be long at all before your ds can seriously hurt your dd. I think you need to have zero tolerance for physical fighting and it is never ok, and punish both kids equally. But you and your dh need to sit your ds down privately and tell him that he is not to hit girls. EVER. Even if it seems that are evenly matched now, he needs to hear from you guys that it is never okay for him to hurt a girl unless it is 100% self defense and he feels his life is in danger. Yes, neither kid should be hitting, but your ds is going to bigger than you can physically control very fast. There are teen boys who hit their moms. YOu really need to be very clear with your ds privately (so your dd doesn't intentially provoke him with "but you cant hit me back, I'm a girl!" that this is unacceptable. [/quote]
