Kids Fight and Sharing
My kids are only 16 months apart, so they are great playmates for each other. Like most kids, they enjoy playing with each other but there are times when they fight as well. I’ve just stopped them from pushing each other at the staircase just now as I was worried that either one of them would tumbled down the stairs and got themselves hurt. Some times, they would use any toys or objects to hit one another and I have to snatch the things away and pull them apart. Now you know why I haven’t bought any Baseball Equipment, especially the baseball bat? Who knows if they will use it to hit each other?
I am trying my best to teach them to express themselves verbally. If they want to get a toy from others, they will have to ask for it politely. If my boy is still playing with it, then my gal will have to wait for her turn. They are still learning about waiting patiently and taking turns. Sometimes, my gal will walk to her brother and say, “Share share (with) me.” Of course, my boy doesn’t share his stuffs all the time, but he is willing to share with her occasionally.
I guess it’s normal for kids to fight with each other as it’s one of the ways they interact with friends and siblings. However, I do hope that they won’t fight much when they are older. It’s quite tiring listening to those cries!
