My boys are delicious and delightful, sure, but they can be a HUGE pain in my ass.Luckily, in the past week, the dark cloud that was over my older son’s head seems to have lifted, but now we’re deep in the sibling rivalry and fighting age. Both my kids, who are 6 and 3, are headstrong and impatient (which, truth be told, they got from me). And in the past week, the sibling bickering has become completely chaotic. Now, I’m an only child, but my husband is a middle child. Suffice it to say, this all seems waaay worse to me than it does to him.So, dear reader, how do you handle sibling squabbles? Any patience-inducing tips you can share? Believe me, I’m all ears.
