They're at a fun stage where they are starting to play with each other. I was mortal enemies with most of my siblings, but they are a lot older than me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095898 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 22:24:35 +0000 sera_87 2095898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best friends from the start. I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095882 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 22:11:23 +0000 PinkElephant 2095882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best friends, for the most part. The older one likes to take on the "mommy" role - she's very tolerant of little fingers shoved in her lunch and her lovey going in her little sister's mouth. the younger one idolizes her big sister. </p> <p>Every once in a while the older one tells me to "take her away from me" (her being little sis), so I sense some turmoil coming! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095864 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:56:30 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2095864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best friends! So far, we've lucked out. They play very, very well together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095860 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:54:19 +0000 twodoghouse 2095860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I'll be ok if they aren't best friends, but I would love to avoid them ever being mortal enemies/fighting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095854 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:53:03 +0000 mrbee 2095854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: We never went through a mortal enemy phase! But we weren't always best friends... that really consistently started in high school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095849 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:50:59 +0000 twodoghouse 2095849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best friends, although sometimes it amazes me that they never get upset with each other despite the scratching, toy stealing, kicking, climbing on top of, and hair pulling. Is this what it means to be twins? I hope they're always so tolerant of each other, but I know that's wishful thinking. @mrbee: Were you and your twin always best friends, or did you go through mortal enemy phases too? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095836 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:44:55 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 2095836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: yeah but that's not fair to her in the long run right? Big brothers deserve to be challenged sometimes :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095816 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:33:39 +0000 mrbee 2095816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tiger: I hope Olive stands up for herself too, but it could be a mixed blessing if she does! They just play so well together now... I worry about any change in the dynamic!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095815 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:31:57 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 2095815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: ha! That's how D is, he just adores and worships K and doesn't even get upset when K is blatantly mean to him. I hope he learns to stand up for himself soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095787 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:14:32 +0000 BoogieBea 2095787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are both. They've been bickering a lot this evening. I am taking a breather from them right now. I prepared their dinner plates and came upstairs. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095779 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:12:14 +0000 Bao 2095779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on the day but LO1 is pretty mean to her little sister half of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2095774 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:10:10 +0000 autumnlove 2095774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It changes all the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2094583 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 12:33:10 +0000 Mamaof2 2094583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is one of life's biggest mysteries to me right now :silly: </p> <p>Then hate each other and then 5 seconds later they are best friends! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-best-friends-or-mortal-enemies#post-2094580 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 12:31:07 +0000 mrbee 2094580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now, the kids are best friends, and spend huge amounts of time playing together! A huge portion of that credit goes to our younger daughter, who is just so forgiving of her brother's behavior at times. She really sees him through rose-colored glasses! I hope she doesn't take them off for a long while. :)</p> <p>Are your kids best friends or mortal enemies? </p>
