Like wanting them to be best friends and stick up for each other. I need to be more realistic and realize there will always be squabbles and to not get so upset about it. It's hard to watch but you're right, we can't always be the referee.<br />Good luck and thanks again for such great perspective :)Melissa (Confessions of a Dr. Mom)http://www.blogger.com/profile/14468887103710530554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296085282724864567.post-4779637485287796982010-12-16T01:03:50.533-05:002010-12-16T01:03:50.533-05:00It sounds like a good plan!

Interestingly enough when alone, or home with SuperHubby working from home, they NEVER FIGHT!!! NEVER FIGHT!!! It is unbelievable.<br />I try to avoid getting in the middle of things, my husband is less successful at this. I also try to make light of them when they pull the "you like him/her more than me". You know "of course I do", "Isn't obvious". That usually makes them see how ridiculous they are being.<br />I look forward to the updates to hear how things are going.Making It Work Momhttp://www.makingitworkmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296085282724864567.post-43061372930578987552010-12-15T18:47:37.800-05:002010-12-15T18:47:37.800-05:00Great advice!!

I wish I'd watched her before I became a teacher. Consistency is key. Stick with it! You can do it! :)Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05474888243365793750noreply@blogger.com
