Hi there ~ this is a very common problem among siblings. However there are a couple of things that you could do to prevent arguments and fighting at home and live peacefully. Be strict with your kids and award them only when they do their tasks according to your satisfaction, while giving them tasks make sure you do not give them the same tasks. Also separately allot time for both kids and make sure your give time-outs (punishment in the form of isolation for 5 minutes) when they do not listen to you or follow your instructions. If you continue to have problems please visit with a child psychologist since your children may have hyperactivity issues. Hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
