Conflict between brothers:
Whenever there is an argument between brother and sister and you automatically intervene, the more you push your children to look for you instead of defending themselves, the child will scream louder and make himself a victim, so it is better to let them manage their conflict without your intervention. Participation in the conflict will complicate their relationship in the future.
Whether you punish the big or small child, they will find it unfair, but if you confiscate the object causing the conflict, it will create a sense of frustration.
Ways to deal with conflict between brothers:
Here are five ways to handle conflict at its best:
- Keep Calm: Avoid interfering as much as possible (count to 20 before intervening).
- Do not intervene systematically, try to assess the situation before acting.
- Divert the children's attention before the situation worsens.
- Take a neutral position by avoiding punishment.
- Do not try to make the child jealous.
