[QUOTE="Andy, post: 320267, member: 5096"] My dad would threaten to put which ever kids were fighting (usually the bickering - no physical) into the front yard and MAKE them physically fight it out. I think he may have actually done it once. Tell you what, if you are quarreling and someone puts you in the yard and tells you, "Get it out of your system. Go ahead! If you are going to fight, fight!" you really don't know where to start or what to do. Especially if you are not apt to throw a punch under any circumstances. This worked for us girls because we were never physical. Not sure how well it would work for those who don't mind throwing punches at their siblings. May have some domestic violence cases involved if it went as far as the kids would like to go? My dad also was the one to say, "Never start a fight but if you find yourself in one, make sure you end it." I love that saying! So many ways to stop a fight! :) [/QUOTE]
