Im feeling so frustrated. I feel like I need help hitting the reset button but just dont quite know how to. I have 2 boys, 13 years and 11 years. Since they have been little, they have fought over EVERYTHING!!
Who got the blue cup, who has the first shower, he got more drink than me arrgghh. Over the years, I managed this by making charts/rosters and only using clear glasses etc
Now the fighting has stepped up another level. They are becoming physical. One will torment the other, lock them selves in the bedroom whilst the other bashes the door down. Ive lost two door handles in the last week from the sheer force of banging on the doors.
Im yelling all the time. I feel like a referee. We cant go out and enjoy a meal or do anything fun because it turns into a shit fight. Ive just had enough.
Is anyone else in the same boat or have any tried and tested advice on how to get out of this awful cycle?
Thankyou

My 10 year old girl and 9 year old boy have been like this FOREVER. they fight over the same stupid things. Who has the front seat..who's has the the most mash potato on their plate. Like really!? I also have a hole in one of our bedroom doors from them pushing against it to get to the other one ðŸ˜
No advice at all just letting you know your not alone!
