    I know what you mean xl, Josh can be an absolute horror sometimes. I don't know whether it's for attention or what it is.

    thanks searching

    I just dont understand it at all until a few months ago they were really close and played lovely together they had the odd fall out but then what brother and sister dont. I dont know if it is because DD is getting older now and wants her own space she obviously doesnt want to play like she used to but its still no excuse for the way she is behaving and when DS gets his back up well he has a foul temper like his dad and its like world war 3 sometimes.

    I did wonder if it was because we had bubs but they both dote on him non stop and love him to bits its just each other that they cant get on with.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    :mad::mad:RANT ALERT:mad::mad:

    I am so sick of my older two fighting from the minute they get up until they go to bed they do not stop. You get one to behave and the other one just starts winding them up again!!! I've just told them they either pack it in or im sending them to live with their dad as i can't take it anymore. I wouldnt but they just dont behave like this for him( mind you thats probably because they are sh*t scared of him when he shouts) i just dont have that menacing presence.

    My DD has just totally lost it and pounded her brother so she has been sent to bed for the rest of the evening. I feel like crying :(

    My sister and I fought from about the age of her being 12 me 10. Fought like cat and dog all day and night, used to share a room and had to be split up, I nearly blinded her with a high heel shoe.
    One word for it: hormones.

    My DD can cause an arguement in an empty room since hormones took over her brain when she was about 10!

    i used to fight with my brothers as well. proper wresting as well. then i just never bothered with them. and i know with my brother closest in age to me (4 years younger) that a lot of it was jealousy. as he came along after me.....
    cant actually remember properly speaking to them till we were all past 18....

    we get on very well now though.

    I agree with the hormones... Although Aimee's 5 and suffers with them, honestly the mouth on that girl! There were 4 of us growing up and we were always fighting... My brothers were usually the instigators... Used to wind us up and watch us go...

    Just spent 2 days cleaning up Aimee's room... Have removed a few things she doesn't play with and shuffled furniture round... But still have no idea how we're going to fit the cot bed in!! :eek:
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.
