My two are 12 and 7 and they each have a friend here the same age. For the last hour it's been constant, the younger two are constantly wanting a go on the X-box and the older two won't let them. Have intervened and tried set times for sessions, but my dd and friend would argue black was white if they could! It's, "Yes but they had 5 mins longer last time so we should now!" etc etc.
My ds's friend (age 7) has been constantly wanting drinks/biscuits etc, so I just left the biscuit tin out in the end, he now wants "other things", (meaning chocolate I suppose)! Having to say no as his mum will be over just before 7 to tell him to come back for tea, we all live very local, the kids often play at each other's houses but return home for meals.
My dd's friend has just told me the boys are annoying them by being noisy! I've said for about the 8th time that the weather's lovely, why ever can't they play out but they don't want to, They wanted to do sliding down the stairs races with large boxes but I stopped that straightaway!
I've now said any more disputes between them all they sort themselves, otherwise I send them home early. Agreement was they could all come back after tea but I'm not so sure now, I may call it a day soon at this rate, I've been rushed off my feet with them all!
