Ds is 14 and ds11. I know kids bicker argue etc. But its just getting stupid. They cant even pass each other in the hall without arguing. They are literally just passing and they manage to argue.
The 14 year old seems a bit worse then the 11 year old if we are in the living room watching TV. All I hear is him . Don't look at me. Stop with the funny looks. Why are you starting. Etc etc.. And to be honest i have not seen her do it. So I'm not sure if she just looked in his direction and it's given another reason for a bickering moment
I'm not saying it's all him dd has a part to play as well but ds is the one that makes an issue over a nothing.
An example if they have both been playing up . And decided to punish them. An example would be . There is stuff they ask me to get them from the shops /on line and I tell them they are not getting it because of their behaviour. They have had exactly the same punishment. And ds decideds he can go on and on about how he is the one getting punished and its not fair. Yet he was there when I told (both) of them they won't get their stuff.
As I said I know dd plays up as well I think its 6 of one half dozen of the other . It's just that dd is less vocal I think .
As I have been typing this it seems really stupid. But I'm just so fed up with it I mean what is there to gain from arguing passing each other ffs.
Any advice? Or do I just have to wait 5 years for it to pass
