Most of us have either experienced—or refereed—sibling rivalry. So what do we do when our kids are constantly at each other's throats? Why do they fight constantly, and how do we get them to stop?
In this episode, Margaret and Amy discuss:
How parents consciously and unconsciously contribute to sibling rivalry
How to know what's normal sibling rivalry and what's harmful bullying
When to step in and when to let your kids work it out themselves
Why treating your kids fairly is not the same as treating them equally
Here are links to some of the resources mentioned in the episode:
