My girls are so awesome and really well behaved for the most part but the one thing we struggle with is the 2 of them fighting. When I say fighting I mean hitting and kicking and sometimes it's just verbal.
Well for me it's not
ok for them to fight. Some people say "that is just what sisters do" but I am
convinced that my kids are not going to do what everyone else does.
I have handled it before by spanking them. I think this works most of the time but it's not working with this. I kept thinking to myself that they needed a long lasting
consequence rather than a short lived smack.
So here is my plan and I will let you know if it works.I already did it this morning once. Every time they really fight or hit or kick, we throw a toy away and they both get a spanking or grounded from something they really enjoy.
Example.. This morning London called Lexi stupid because Lexi ask her a question, so she got a spanking and had to throw away her purse and her note pad. If Lexi would have hit her or said something mean back she would not get to watch TV or maybe I would not let her go outside to play with friends and throw away a toy.
I hope this works. Everyday I am learning as a mom but the one thing I have learned more than anything else is to be
consistent and follow through. This is hard for me but I am determined for my kids to be different than the world. I want them to be a light.
