A. Whether you like it or not, fighting kids will always be a part of every parent’s life. The way you deal with the situation will form the foundation of their relationship. Setting ground rules from day one will ensure household peace in the long run. They will have to learn to compromise, negotiate, control their anger, understand others’ perspective, and finally, to let go and start afresh. Do not get involved in every small conflict. Let the kids try to resolve it before you feel the need to step in. It will only increase their dependence on you if you solve all their problems in life.Physical harm should be a strict NO. Any situation should not escalate to violence.https://parenting.firstcry.com/articles/sibling-rivalry-reasons-solutions/?amp#How_To_Deal_With_Sibling_Rivalry
