I felt that she got preferential treatment and I have no idea what she was thinking. LOL. I'm in my 30s and she's almost there and we are the best of friends now.

Sometimes I say something sometimes I let them work it out. Granted they are only 3 and 17 months old but they will always be there for each other and so they might as well get used to it. Before having kids I thought the sibling rivalry started way later but Candisehttp://www.domestic-chic.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386759355610512412.post-74605165239289839592010-12-15T21:00:50.437-05:002010-12-15T21:00:50.437-05:00I also am troubled when my kids, 5 and 3, fight.

It bothers me when my 5 year old does something that he knows is going to get under his little sister's skin (and yes, she already has buttons to push). But I know it's normal. But when I was growing up, and maybe b/c my mother was a strict disciplinarian, my brother and I, 11 months apart, were not allowed to fight.

With my youngest sister it was a confused relationship of sister/mother. Sisterhood can be such a complicated issue. We still don't have it all together. My children (one boy and one girl) often fight and I struggle with helping them to have a balance too. hicksgirl93https://www.blogger.com/profile/08458709989179468568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386759355610512412.post-22916208698821051562010-12-15T13:45:24.212-05:002010-12-15T13:45:24.212-05:00Here's a quote I shared with my big sister (wh...Here's a quote I shared with my big sister (who is also my business partner and one of my closest friends) after one of out "tiffs" ;): "If you don't understand how a woman could both love her sister dearly and want to wring her neck at the same time, then you were probably an only child." ~Linda SunshineKristi Bookernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386759355610512412.post-89410612267582381712010-12-15T12:51:24.175-05:002010-12-15T12:51:24.175-05:00I don't have a sister but my older brother and...I don't have a sister but my older brother and I fought like cats and dogs when we were kids. One year he got a plastic baseball bat for Christmas. Let's just say I hated that bat.... My brother told me there was no such thing as Santa Claus and he didn't want me hanging around him and his friends. Fast forward 10-15 years later til now, we are the best of friends.

Dude, I was JUST talking to Kris about the very same issue with Mar and Sage! I wonder sometimes if I'm a weirdo for being bothered by what is apparently normal sibling rivalry! Da hell they gotta fight for? And how do I handle it? Punishment? Understanding? Conversation? Moscato?
