Helping Parents Manage Siblings Who Fight
Briefly

Eighty percent of U.S. children have a sibling, yet the aggression between them is often dismissed as harmless rivalry rather than addressed effectively in parenting resources.
Research indicates that parents seek guidance on reducing sibling aggression, highlighting a significant gap in parenting education that largely overlooks this common challenge.
Current parenting courses focus more on parent-child dynamics instead of the sibling relationships, showcasing a cultural blind spot regarding the frequent aggression siblings exhibit toward one another.
Child-centered approaches by parents have proven effective in managing and reducing sibling aggression, suggesting a more focused strategy could benefit families dealing with this issue.
