How often do you argue with your other half (if you do)? Is it normal to?
Having a 1 and 4 year old can get pretty intense at times and I would say we have about 2 arguments per week. Can be due to things like early wake ups, juggling work/kids, toilet accidents, money, children not eating properly, forgetting things when leaving the house. Oh and last but not least, tantrums!
It is usually blame that causes the arguments here. So in our case, I might screw up on one of the above which sometimes is my fault and then my wife will blame me. Eg If I forget to buy nappies or wipes or their favourite snack. Sometimes it is just a 15m squabble. Other times it can go on for hours. To be honest I don't like arguments, which is why I don't start them.
Is this a common thing that happens with couples who have kids? Or are there couples out there who manage to keep their cool with all this and not over react at situations?
