Battling boys.

Byline: ask anna

QWITH only a year between them, my two sons are more like twins - without the closeness! From the time the youngest could crawl, they've squabbled and scrapped over just about everything. How can I stop it? BEV, Coventry AYOU don't say how old they are, Bev, but bear in mind that toddlers between two and three must be taught to share. At any age, they can draw straws or throw dice to decide who gets first choice, then insist that the other son gets the next turn. Make certain there's rigid fairness and, if there's any sulking or protest, confiscate the contested item.
