Hi all, this is the first time I've posted on here so please be gentle with me! I have 2 DS's aged 4yrs and a 4 month old. I have a DSS who is 13 and a DSD 16. DSD and DSS are with us a couple of days in the week and every Saturday. The problem I'm having at the moment is on Saturdays DSS and DS are constantly fighting. They go out in the morning with DP to DSS's activities. They niggle and fight in the car and carry on when back in the house. If we decide to go out, for example to the park they cant play nicely together. Obviously they get told to stop fighting, or we end up separating them, but it makes no difference. I worry all the fighting is teaching my DS to behave badly. We only have this problem when the two of them are together, my DS is fine with other children that he plays with, whatever age they are. Just looking for any tips on how to improve the situation. Thanks.
