[QUOTE="co.jo, post: 228966, member: 6567"] My two oldest are 2 years apart, and also fought like crazy, due to my oldest daughter's violence, and many other problems. Police were called a few times, even the day of my son's high school graduation when she tried to attack his g/f. For several years she was in a foster home due to the safety threat she posed to the other children. My son has several scars from her, both emotional and physical. Now they are 22 and 20, and although they don't live in the same house, have actually become friends! I never would have believed it, and still wouldn't want to test it by putting them under the same roof for any length of time, but it is amazing to me. I think keeping them apart was the only solution at the time, and you are lucky to be able to work things out the way you have. There was never a solution for the violent rages, drugs helped with some behaviors but also added 100 pounds which she has never lost even after 5 years drug-free, and we simply had to survive those years until she outgrew some things and added some coping strategies.
