SOC: Screaming, Shouting, Sibling Rivarly

Throw in nanother two into the equation and you have a wonky surround system filled with constant yelling, shouting, screaming bursting the indoor decible allowance .
I’m tired of having to tell Monkey boy an Doggy Boy to leave each other alone and stop picking on each other.
” Mummy he’s making funny faces at me ! ”
” Give me!!” followed by wailing , thing being thown at one another etc etc.
The worst thing is that when the boys get at each other it makes Tiger girl want to jump in and shout and scream also.
Faint!!
For once I am wishing that the kids come with these buttons
- Mute
- Play nicely
- Stop squabbling
- Take turns
Or if there is on that says ” rapid depletion of energy level ” it will do too.

I am so there with you. So There. My 3 are sick and driving me nuts. And it is the twin’s birthday, so my husband feels we should still be “full stream” ahead… so I need a husband remote also. Should say:
1. Mute
2. Go away
3. Stay, I will go away.
4. Mute with a hug.
🙂 Stopping by from Stream of C. … but, I had already written my post – and it took more than 5 minutes.

I remember fighting with my sister and my mom sending us to our rooms to seperate us. Then we would instantly stop fighting and sit in our doorways talking to one another like we never had the fight in the first place. I know that can be trying on a parent but I’m feel so awful that my daughter may never know what it’s like to have a fight with a sibling. Hang in there!

*Sigh* I guess this is part and parcel of parenthood. I seriously doubt that any parent doesn’t go through this at one time or another.

I have a one and only. He doesn’t get lonely. He gets BORED and wants Mommy to play with him all the time. I don’t think there’s a perfect formula. I’d love a playmate for him but also like my quiet 🙂
