Whether you're dealing with daily squabbles between young kids, quiet resentment among teens, or lingering rivalries into adulthood, this episode offers practical insights and strategies to manage conflict effectively.  Conflict amongst siblings is real and spans all ages: from fights over toys and screen time with young kids to resentment over perceived favoritism among teens or adults. The goal isn't to eliminate conflict entirely but to manage it, acknowledging its presence and working toward healthier relationships. Shay and Austin discuss the 3 main causes of sibling conflict, as well as 5 practical solutions to handle it including: Connect with each child individually Delight, celebrate, and laugh together as a family Avoid comparing your children Set patterns of reconciliation, apologizing, and forgiveness Be proactive about end-of-life matters and money The biggest takeaway from this episode is that “Your children may be competitive and compete with each other, but they should never have to compete for your love.”   If you want to remember what you learned in this episode, and didn't have time to take notes while listening, subscribe to our newsletter at withyouintheweeds.com to receive our weekly episode summary and to find our library of resources on all the topics we cover.

I know I have!  I would estimate about 95% of conflict and parenting challenges in our household stems from sibling conflict. Welcome to Redeeming the Chaos. I'm your host, Laurie Christine. I'm an author, Bible teacher, wife, and mom to four wild, wonderful boys. I would love for you to join me on this adventure of raising courageous warriors for the Kingdom of God.As moms of young men, we know that fighting among boys often gets very physical. While girls may sulk and hold a grudge for weeks on end, boys tend to explode with big emotions and lash out physically at whichever sibling is nearest to them.  (this is a generality. I'm sure you can tell me stories of your girls who have broken out into fist fights as well)So, what causes these fights and quarrels? If you didn't pick up on it, this question is a quote from James chapter 4. I'll read the rest of the passage here:“What is causing the quarrels and fights among you? Don't they come from the evil desires at war within you? 2 You want what you don't have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can't get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them.”Does that sound familiar?  Our kids have strong desires. Maybe they want the biggest piece of cake for dessert. Maybe they want the best, squishiest chair for movie night, or the front seat in the minivan. Maybe they want to be treated fairly, maybe they just want to be left alone. (Granted, not all these desires are evil… but often a big desire is the underlying cause of sibling conflict). And look what the verse says… you scheme and kill… you are jealous… you fight and wage war… all this in order to get what you want.  Sound familiar? Now, hopefully the conflict in our homes has not escalated  to the point of killing… however, in the book of Matthew Jesus says “hating” someone is just as bad as “murdering them” in our hearts. So, how do we deal with the conflict that inevitably arises between siblings? How can we teach our kids to show kindness and love to each other, rather than seeking revenge? We have a guest on the show today to help us answer these questions. "B.J. Meurer has worked with families for over 25 years as an elementary educator, biblical parenting coach & presenter, and digital course creator. He has coached families with children of all ages and stages facing a wide variety of emotional, mental, and biological challenges and helped them discover and personalize the practical heart-based tools and strategies that bring about positive change in their families. You can find many more of B.J.'s parenting resources and videos at JesusHelpMeParent.com.

One of the longest relationships many Canadians will have isn't with friends, partners nor parents. Siblings are, generally, one of the lifelong companions you don't get to choose and, sometimes, conflict creeps in. Sibling rivalry is a tale as old as time, from biblical stories to more contemporary examples of sporting excellence. Why do sibling rivalries begin and will they ever really abate? We ask experts in various fields to discuss this and more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

To hear even more on when it might be time to take your kid to a specialist go to the XL episode on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad Question 1-Have we shaped our kids to criticise rather than celebrate talent? In this week's episode we discuss the steps you can take to retrain your children to enjoy rather than destroy what they are watching on tv and in the wider world.Question 2- Raising teenagers is so hard, even harder if your wife has passed away and you're now navigating all the teenage girl stuff on your own. When she feels like she has never needed her mum more how can you fill those shoes? Is 14 years too old to not have started getting your period? Where can this dad go for advice and how can he reassure his daughter that everything is going to be okay? Question 3 Sibling relationships can be so tricky. As parents we try our best to manifest healthy relationships between our kids. It's not always possible. What do you do if you notice that the older sibling isn't being kind or fair to the younger kid. How do you rebalance the relationship ensuring fairness going forward? Thank you for listening in to another episode of Honey You're Ruining Our kid. Our show only exists because you guys support it and help it grow. We are so grateful.

In this episode, I answer a question from Hayley in Australia, dealing with a common issue many parents face: sibling conflict. Hayley has been diligently applying the principles we discuss here, such as getting down to her children's level, validating their feelings, and setting limits, yet she's not seeing the positive changes she hoped for, especially when it comes to her children hitting each other.   I address the importance of neutral phrasing in limit setting, the impact of birth order on sibling dynamics, and the necessity of providing alternative choices to undesirable behavior. I also touch on the significance of keeping our interventions brief and to the point, as our children's attention spans are limited.   If you're grappling with similar challenges or have any questions about parenting, I encourage you to reach out to me at brenna@thekidcounselor.com or leave a voice message at (813) 812-5525.   Also, remember to subscribe to our newsletter at www.playtherapyparenting.com for more insights and resources. If you subscribe today, I'll send you a video of a workshop I conducted on Birth Order... a topic I discussed in today's podcast!   This episode is a testament to the complexities of parenting and understanding and responding to our children's needs.

What causes fights and quarrels among you? James asks.  Maybe you have asked that same question to your children. But if our homes are green houses, if they are training ground for our children, if the instruction we give is fodder for their heart and mind where emotions and actions are made, isn't it a grand opportunity to address conflict in a biblical manner?

Sibling conflict is probably inevitable, but it doesn't have to be destructive. In fact, our kids can learn conflict management skills that help them protect their own dignity and their relationships. Important questions I address: What is a parent's role in their kids' conflict, and how can our faith help our kids see their siblings and their conflicts more clearly?

Listen to this insightful Whinypaluza episode about managing sibling conflict Here is what to expect on this week's show: Why you want to walk into a conflict with calm energy. How it's important to teach your kids that physical fighting is never the answer. Why it can be helpful to have your kid calm down before explaining what's wrong. How brainstorming conflict resolution ideas with your kids can be helpful. Why you should point out when your kids are doing something right together.

Interestingly, today's topic — adult sibling conflict — was inspired by recent news in the world of pop culture. The very public lives (and feuding) of sisters Britney Spears and Jamie Lynn. While Chalene doesn't typically talk about pop culture on the podcast, she feels there is a lot to learn from this particular family ordeal. And, hopefully, may even prove instructive when it comes to our own relationships and conflicts with siblings.   Thank you to our sponsor Soul CBD!!

"They just keep fighting!" Summer, for us, means lots of unstructured time together as a family. Which is great. . . until it's not. Perhaps you can identify. Maybe you see yourself in one of the following situations: Situation #1 - The kids are fighting - again! The harder you try to make it stop, the worse it seems to get - and the kids seem more and more resentful. Situation #2 - One minute they love each other and the next minute they're arch enemies. The older they get the louder and angrier it gets. You hate the way this affects everyone's mood, including your own. Situation #3 - Time-outs, required apologies, and firmness temporarily curb the fighting, but it soon comes back with more intensity. Situation #4 - Your young kids are beginning their rivalry and you worry where it's heading if you don't learn some better strategies.  (copied from Sibling Conflict Online Course description). Jim & Lynne Jackson from ConnectedFamilies.org are back to equip us in training our children to solve conflict well. And instead of just wishing they would "just stop fighting", to recognize the gospel work of guiding our family to reconciliation. Jim & Lynne have been on the show before sharing their fabulous 4-layer framework for discipline that connects (Listen here to Episode 80 & 81). And again helping connect in any situation (Ep 98). Today, they are talking us through The Peace Process. A simple but effective way to guide our kids to a lifetime of reconciled relationships. Here's their great graphic with the four steps moving us from "crazy mountain" to peaceful reconciliation (Click here to print your own copy): Conflict is inevitable. Instead of just getting frustrated and annoyed, I've found having a plan to reconnect hearts and train empathy so helpful. I also loved all the phrases Jim & Lynne modeled to use as we guide our children through the process. Here are some of my favorites (I'll be bookmarking this page and referring to often): "Sounds like y'all are having a hard time. Do you need my help or are you able to work it out on your own?" "Solving brains won't work until we're calm. Why don't we each find a comfortable place. How long do you need? 5 min? 10 min? Then we'll come back together to work this out." "Did you hear that? How does she feel? Do you like that what you did made her feel that way? You two are listening to each other. How does that feel?" "Your big feelings are a gift. And they are an even greater gift with you can use them to help understand other's big feelings." "What's going on? What was important to each person? How have you solved this problem before? Would you like to think of ways to solve the problem or do you want me to help give you choices on how to solve it?" "Are there four things you could say that are kind and true about that person?" Lastly, if you need more help learning how to guide your kiddos through the peace process, check out Jim & Lynne's new SIBLING CONFLICT ONLINE COURSE. I'll be working through it this summer.

Are we trying to get conflict to stop or teach reconciliation? The four steps to "The Peace Process".  A real life example of applying peace process. How training in reconciliation helps our kids in their future marriages and relationships. Helping our kids learn how to solve the problem of the conflict (a 3-step process). A scenario of a more empathetic child in conflict with a more strong-willed child--growing specific skills in kids. Addressing the differences in your kids outside of conflict. Help for the mom who has a child with special needs in the sibling mix. Connecting with others based not on experience but emotion.

What are some ways you and your child can calm down in the heat of conflict? How could taking a mom "time out" help you can down? Discuss how seeing conflict resolution in light of your child's future relationships (think coworkers and future spouse) can help you see why these skills are so important to learn now.
