When are out with friends, ds1 keeps running up with "x said there are not any leaves in the park", or "said he is not my friend" or "x hit me". As he is always in my sight I can see that ds1 is giving as good as he gets and is just as often the one who is saying these things or hitting his friends.
Sometimes it is pretty much constant and I'm not quite sure what to do. Should I just acknowledge ("hmm, ok") and let him try to sort things out for himself? Unless they are really hitting each other we don't tend to intervene.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
