Well I have to admit, today has gone much better than today. The morning started out fine and about 11:30am my bio son and 10 yr old daughter started going at it so I immediatley sent them both to their rooms for 1/2 hr. I told them all that we were not going to have another day like yesterday and that was that. The two AM offenders started at each other again around 2pm and I again sent them both to their rooms. Everyone seems to be getting along otherwise.
I never thought about the kids having to work out their own "pecking order" so to speak but I guess that is what is happening here. A good nights sleep also does wonders for restoring my patience.
Thank you for you advice and comments!
