Cold Milk War
Once again, we had a few issues on the "Carpeted" areas of the house... enough to warrant a cease fire. Well, what does that really mean? It means the kids have to sit in the kitchen area while watching TV in the living room if they want to drink their chocolate milks...
Its not really the first time we have tried to enforce this rule due to messy circumstances... and I am sure it will not be the last. But the most important thing is not to get pulled into the "who's fault is is that we are not allowed to drink in the living room..."
It does seem to be a sour spot with them. These little battles for power that they deal with on a regular basis.... for example... when something breaks or spills.... whats the first thing that happens?
At first glance you would thing that the culprit is obvius... but that is not always the case. Sometimes interrogation is needed to determine to true person responsible...
...I wonder where they learn that from? ...well, the good thing is that these little angels may be quick to point... but with a little time, they all come clean... they also like to sit down and talk about their differences to help resolve issues.
Sometimes little is said during these negotiations.... but sometimes that is for the best...
The end result is usually peace... and perhaps a little bit of lessons learned... then its back to 'normal'...and the next big project...
...what ever that is....
