Boys, Boys, Boys

We have three of them. Why is it they can't follow a simple commmand? Everything is negogiable? Every simple thing that is "black" is really "gray"? They argue and manuever for power amongst themselves. Corporate businessmen in the making. I see they start at 6,7,8 years old to become the successful business men of the future.

I'm trying to reframe their actions, and do believe what I'm seeing is true....but as one of their parents, sure is frustrating. I'm not used to "fighting" over he took out the milk and I wanted to. He has more cereal than I do. He went first to the car and I wanted to. ARGH!!!

3 boys. 3 lovely little boys

I am almost sure this is normal. I recall my brother and I lining up our glasses of soda and getting down eye level to check the exact amounts.

Fighting over who gets to turn off the TV can get both of my kids crying.

I have one son and I've watched him, over the years, as he wrestles with his friends to see who is the 'stronger' boy. It's innate in boys I think.

I only have one (boy that is) and it's still that way. I think he would argue with a fence post..

Marg is right--kids are kids!

I don't think it's a boy thing. I had one boy and two daughters and I vividly remember those fights. Must be a sibling thing.
