One of the common issues in home’s that siblings constantly
fight and argue with each others. One
minute they are best buds and the next they are screaming at each other. Some siblings jealous from each other and view
each other as rivals, they may have difficulty getting along as in adult age.
Adult sibling rivalry is a matter in many families. Rivalry among siblings does
not always end in childhood. When parents compare their kids to each other or
to any other child then they become rivals. When parents don’t treat them same while
intervene then they start jealous of each other and fight with each other. When
parents give responsibility to their older child for the younger ones, then older
child starts thinking then He/She is superior in house and others start
jealous.
In some cases, when parents don’t give attention to their
children then their children start fighting with each other. When parents don’t
have option to provide separate rooms to their individual child and that’s why
children share a room then they used to fight all time. When sibling shares
clothes and shoes etc, then they also used to fight for these matters. Some
time’s siblings start fighting while they are playing each other. Siblings who don’t have basic negotiation patience and
problem solving skills, they used to fight each other and start hate each other
and start saying “I hate her”, “I hate him”.
Responsibilities of Parents to Prevent Siblings Fighting.
It’s a major responsibility of parents to prevent the causes
of fighting among their children, solve the problems of their children; don’t compare
their children with each other, give attention to their children before they
fight, teach their children problem solving skills and methods, always be
polite with children, don’t make one of their child superior, treat every child
in same way, teach them how to restrain anger, create an atmosphere of
appreciation in home, don’t harsh on child who started the fight, teach them
unity lessons and give them equal love and affection.
