2yr old b/g twins fight all the time!

It's driving me insane. They fight over everything!! When i tell them to stop they get worse. I have to drag them apart. DS is so rough on his sister that at times he really hurts her. DS has behavioral issues as it is..he hits people ALL the time. He also tends to head butt his sister when he is wrestling with her.  We have early intervention coming in for speech so we asked if they could have someone come in for behavior as well so they are but it's so out of control.

Is anyone else experiencing this???? I am coming to hate weekends because all it is is screaming and crying kids.

Is this normal 2yr old behavior??

Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks

Re: 2yr old b/g twins fight all the time!

  • My twins have fought a lot for a long time, especially since they were 18m+. Now they are almost 4 and it's gotten somewhat better gradually over the past year; now it just depends on the day. It's somewhat a sibling thing though, I know; my older sister and I were 2 years apart and I know we fought a LOT when we were little.

  • my best friend has fraternal twin boys.  They are about 15 months old. When I am on the phone with him he spends 2/3rds of the convo telling " no hitting or biting..." and breaking up fights.  So I would say its pretty normal.  They are becoming aware of things like each others stuff.  My 3 yr ol daughter is all about everything being her's so I can't wait to see what two boy will do...

  • sounds alot like our house! 2yr 9mth old b/g twins who are either hugging and kissing each other, or screaming, pulling hair, biting or pushing each other! Lots and lots of clinginess too - Most of the time I think it is the age and having to constantly compete for my attention. Occasionally I question if we may have behavioral issues. I do notice it is much better when my hubby is around than just me with them GL!

  • I routinely set the timer on the microwave if they're both fighting over the same toy.  After 2 minutess, the timer beeps and it's the other one's turn.  They all know what it means.

    That's all I've got, though.
