Stop The Fighting! Parenting Tips to Decrease Sibling Arguments

1- Ignore- let kids work out their problems without being a referee

3- A consequence of kindness or service to other family members is a valuable lesson.

4- Redirect- sometimes just a change of scenery or conversation can go a long way Clair Mellenthin, LCSW, RPT-S Clinical Director Wasatch Family Therapy www.clairmellenthin.com
