Are your toddlers constantly clashing over toys, snacks, or even just space? Are you tired of being the referee or the judge in your kid's battles? Today, I sit down with Miriam, a mom of twin boys on the cusp of turning three, who shares her struggles with daily sibling battles.
Together, we explore how to stay grounded when our kids fight, why blame only adds fuel to the fire, and how to lead with empathy even when chaos erupts. You’ll hear us discuss the power of connection, why getting involved early makes a difference, and how simple shifts in language and perspective can help kids feel seen, safe, and ready to problem-solve. If you’re longing to move beyond timeouts, lectures, or constant guilt, this episode offers encouragement and tangible tools for fostering peace, even in the most tense sibling moments.
