DS1 and DD fight and bicker and argue every day from the moment they get up to the moment they go to sleep. There are small windows now and then during the day when they get on but generally they shout and scream and bicker and bicker and it really gets me down.
so, today when they started at 7.30 am I warned them, that I had had enough and I would really loose my rag if they carried on arguing today. I told them that if they argued, I didnt care who started it or who was to blame, they would both sit at opposite sides of the room facing a wall for 30 mins every time they argued.
They only did it twice this morning and havent argued alllll day. and it was lovely and quiet while that sat facing their wall
Well, it worked today.. .tomorrow is another day ....
