My 24mth old non ID G/B twins fight like cat and dog, morning ,noon and night. They bite, kick, smack, push each other over. Fortunately I have a playpen to seperate when they get too aggressive. No advice really other than to stick to your guns with discipline- I give them one warning then carry out the warning if they ignore it e.g remove the toy theyre fighting over, or bring them in from the garden if they were playing out there. And under no circumstances change the rules to suit as they will only get confused, your dh has to be reading from the same page too- difficult I know, mine became an expert overnight in discipline despite being at work all day- he didnt have a clue about what worked and took the hump when I advised him as to what worked. Needless to say I sat him down and discussed (told him) with him tactfully about what worked and what didnt. He is getting better(2 yrs on!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

would love the answer to this question, just a few hours ago, I went to answer phone and heard them fighting came back in and DS just stood up and walked away DD started screaming, but not her normal Jamie just hit me scream this was a full on proper one, Dunno why but I was drawn to her back - lifted up her t shirt and DS had bitten her, broke the skin, all bruised and a slight bleed but not too much.
So anyone who has the answer to OP please share xx

i have identical twin boys there 22 months now but 4 the past few months they have been fighting now i have typical chalk and cheese and as bad as it sounds one good and one bad my main problem is biting sam bites ryan all the time and slaps him now ryan will only fight with sam when sam starts it but now it's not even over toys it's 4 no reason plz help me stop this i'm starting to los it i'm afraid there going to hurt each other also ryan is a little sensitive boy and if i shout even at sam he will cry, r they 2 little 4 a naughty step??






My twin boys are heading in the same direction too, they're 20mths now and fight over everything. It's impossible to have two of everything, so pretty much all the time I'm distracting one or the other and my 4 yr old son who also likes to make one in with the squabbling!
I feel like a bloody referee. The only thing I keep on saying is aww don;t fight, love .... Ben/thomas and showing them how to love. Or I'll say Ben's turn, Thomas get the choo choo, or something like that.
22mth is too young for the naughty step, you'd be more stressed trying to get them to stay in one place.
Good luck and if you find some miracle that works, please do share!
