"Middle of a chilled afternoon, lounging on my sofa, cold drink in hand and listening to some good music, all in all a nice calm afternoon....or so I thought. A crash and scream comes from upstairs and with a sigh I get up to go see what's going on. As I get upstairs my two kids have decided they want to kill eachother and wreck the house while they do it. there's toys everywhere, they're screaming at eachother, teeth gnashing, angry snarls. In a thought I reckin I'm raising wild animals rather than children at this stage. It seems I can never get a nice afternoon without drama, Why is it so tough being a parent...... " I know that scenario well! My kids regularly try to kill each other! Boy and girl - 18 months age difference and zero in common! In recent months (in their early teens now) they’ve screamed at each other slightly less - which is promising but I’m not getting my hopes up yet! | |||
