Any advice please would be very much appreciated as I feel I'm just going round and round in circles
I have 10 yr old son, 7 yr old daughter and 5 yr old son annd the older two are fighting constantly .... not just arguments but physically hurting one another. The eldest isnt daft, he's the first to back down and walk away when I threaten them with consequences .... but my daughter then turns her anger towards my youngest or myself. She receives consequence after consequence (losing TV in her room, losing out on after school footy which is her fav, bike rides cancelled, the list goes on) but it just isnt working and if anything, the problem is becoming much much worse
I feel so very very sad :( because I honestly believe she hates me ..... she's a daddy's girl and will go to him for cuddles but doesnt want to know me any more
What I am doing wrong? .... I'm at a point where I just can't think straight about it any longer
