Sibling rivalry
Anyone read a great book on sibling rivalry? It's turning my hair gray over here!

Me too! My almost 7.5 yr old and 4.5 yr old haven't stopped killing each other.

Re: Sibling rivalry
I apologize for crashing, but I am in the middle of reading
Siblings Without Rivalry: How to Help Your Children Live Together So You Can Live Too by Elaine Mazlish and I think it is wonderful. It is on Amazon for less than $10.

Re: Sibling rivalry
I am in the midde of reading Magic 1 2 3
it has helped us so much in the short time i have been using the techniques.
the kids know now, i do not care who started it, or what happened...they both go to time out.
There is no more pinning it on the other sibling...you fight you are both take a break...now i hear them saying to each other..."stop stop, mom will punish us both"

Great book! My aunt is a therapist and gave this to me as she is friends with the authors. Definitely recommend it!

This book has been recommended to me as a teacher. I've seen it used in a classroom and it works!

I've read this book and follow the same principle.
