That's not a parenting failure, that's biology. The failure is in how most of us respond. In this episode, I'm walking you through the exact 12-step Sibling Rivalry Protocol I used in my own house when the fighting was so constant I felt like I was on duty as a referee every hour of every day. You'll learn why \"who started it?\" is the worst question you can ask, why comforting the child who caused the hurt is the move that changes everything, and the one role shift — from judge to coach — that ends the cycle for good.
