i have two girls that are 10 and 12 and they seem to fight all the time. i mean about nothing at that. i had alot of bothers and sisters and yes i remeber fighting with them i was the oldest but not like mine do lol. i mean they fight over who gets to sit in the front of the car, whos barbie is whos, what they are going to play, who took what from whos room, i mean the list goes on and on. they are driving me nuts. i fought with my sisters and brothers but it was about will you let me go with you, or they took a pair of pants of mine etc. these 2 two have fought over if it is going to rain or not. i keep telling them they had better be nice to each other one day they will only have each other. lol. that and one day they will grow and need the other for something. i mean now if you put them apart all you hear is i miss sis. what is the deal. lol

I also have two girls and i completely agree with you, and we were two siblings as well, but never fought as much as my kids do. I guess our times were different and we were more sober and innocent, where as the kids now a days, are way ahead. In a way its healthy for them to fight too, or else life would be rather dull ! Of course we have to keep inculcating the values and let them know that they have only each other, and i guess no matter how much ever they may fight, from within they know that they cannot do without each other either. There is always an unseen bonding between them, which we may get to see when they are confronted by other people. I am sure that incase someone is troubling one of them, the other will automatically fight back and defend her / him. That speaks for itself that no matter how much they may fight, and fret and fume, theyre one from within always.!
