Oh, Good, the Kids Are Fighting Again
Nobody said listening to kids bicker is fun. But lockdown offers a chance to teach them how to resolve conflicts on their own.
|
In many households, daily routines have been disrupted and kids are spending more time together — and fighting more often, too. Those sibling quarantine quarrels may be testing parents’ patience, but what if they were also an opportunity — to teach conflict resolution?
— The New York Times: Parenting

“With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us.”
