Siblings fighting? Try to apply a ‘feelings first’ approach for each of them without taking sides, then try to let them work it out. “Natasha, you seem angry because it is your turn to play on the electronics. Josh, you’re frustrated because this is the highest level you have ever reached, and you want to keep going. How can you both work this out?”
