Upstairs hearing my kids scream at each other

[IHateTheElf]

It's constant.
They are relentless
It's not even cos it's Christmas. It's like this everyday.
Just really gets me down. They are 7 and 5.

Just to be clear DH was downstairs enforcing family rules while I was upstairs taking a breather, we haven't just been allowing them to do whatever they like....! There is no starting discipline here, it's trying to find something that works and so far any number of conversations about treating each other with Res ect had fallen in deaf ears when things start up.

"MUUUUMMM!!!! STOP HIM!!! STOP HIM STOP HIM AAAGHHHHTHHXGJK!!"

• I slam on the brakes and stop the car

"What the fuck is happening back there?!?‽"

"HE'S LOOKING OUT OF MY WINDOW!! STOP HIM looking out of MY window NOWWWW WAAAHWSSHHNLGHJBLE"

head explodes

OMG, I could have written every word of all of your posts. They can’t even watch TV without an argument erupting. I’ve tried everything I can think of and they just don’t give a shit. I’m fed up of refereeing them.

Separate them. If can’t play nicely together then own tons of one upstairs and one downstairs

Pmsl

Same here. 19 and 22.

Did you apologise to your parents and wider family for making their day unpleasant due to your inability to control your temper?

Wider family?

23 and 18 here, it’s been chilled. Most I’ve heard from upstairs is the eldest mutter something to the youngest and the youngest say “you’re just being a twat”.

No idea what it was over, but fair enough I say. To be fair, both of them are twats at times.

Youngest is back to Uni tomorrow, so the “casual twatting” will resume at Easter.
