It happened everyday. One minute we were best friends, the next, in the middle of a cat fight. One particular day, we were suppose to be watering flowers for Mom. I wish I could say I remember the reason for the brawl, but alas, it is the outcome of the fight that was much more interesting. We happened to be in the front yard when one of us (probably me- I honestly don't remember) lunged at the other like a ravenous tiger to a baby deer (must've been me-- I'm writing the story, I can call myself a tiger if I like). Faces were slapped, hair started to fly, water ran down the driveway instead of into the flowerbed, and eventually..........it stopped. I walked away fuming into the backyard.
A good neighbor must have gotten an eyeful next door and took it upon themselves to take matters into their own hands. 10 minutes later a Sheriff showed up in the driveway. Curious, I sauntered back to the front yard and joined my sister at the passenger side of the cop car.
"I had a call about a domestic dispute here. Is there a problem?"
My sister looked at me- then back at the Sheriff, "Not here sir, there's no problem here."
He glanced back at me and I nodded, "Must be the wrong house cause we're all good here."
He left with half a smirk on his face. As he drove out of sight my sister and I burst out laughing.
I do believe that was the last of our cat fights.
So.... now that I've ruined any sympathy I might have garnered over my childrens' fights, let me just get to the point.
My boys fight. A LOT. More than my sister and I. More than my brother Bryan and sister Wendy did........
No I take that back, not that bad............but still. I wish for it to stop.
My terrible mother made us hold hands and sing "Love at Home." I hated that. I tried it with my kids, I did. But the song still makes me cringe. So my latest attempt---stand there and hug each other until I'm over it. Don't know if it works, but they haven't fought in 1 hour, 17 minutes and counting.
1 hour, 18 minutes.......stop counting.(real time update 12:34pm) "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.. that's my truck. Give it back you butt!"
(Guess I'm off to supervise some more hugging)

They're Italian, right. Isn't that part of the whole package? Just wait until they are teens.
No really, I hope the hugging works. I just make mine do chores.
I send mine to their beds. They can get off when they want to act human again. They are rarely a good judge of what is humane. At least I get a minute (literally) of quiet
mine are 7 and 9 and still fight like the dickens.... I have been trying the hugging and lately because of their age i just send them to their room and tell them to work it out. I am trying not to get involved and less angry and it seems to work until I lose it!
I'm laughing. . . and I can't seem to stop. Now I know where my mom got that terrible hand holding, song singing technique. I hated it as well!!! I wish you luck in your efforts to way lay the fights.
After being in relationship with him for nine years, he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email is (spirituallove@hotmail. com) you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or anything.
