Hi my kids are constantly arguing/fighting and it is driving me crazy. I'm talking 100 times a day non stop when they are together over every thing you can possibly imagine. Sometimes 5 minutes of peace will rein but you just know it will explode any second and always does.
My 7 year old boy constantly teases the 4 years old girl, does silly faces at her, says silly things etc. If she does something to her he retaliates. But then she too does things to him so its not always one sided. When she was younger he saw her as a baby and was nice ot her but now that she can talk properly etc he treats her like a kid his own age and takes the piss if she eg gets something wrong or doesn't know something. Examples of arguments include:
She is singing a song, then he joins in and she starts screaming that she wants to sing alone. Then he sings more just to wind her up.
She wants water, i get it out and he starts screaming he wants it first then a fight ensues.
Fights over who gets to have the last drop of a eg a smoothie if we are out.
They are drawing on their own paper, one reaches over and draws on the others paper followed by a cycle of retaliation
I spend my entire time telling each of them off. Like I said around 100 times a day. The only restbite is when they are on their tablets. How can I break this cycle? Is there anywhere I can seek help?
