If so, I definitely think she was referring more to arguments and such. All things sibling rivalryish. "He's touching me," "She won't stop breathing my air," (those wonderful things Elder Bednar talked about at conference) and bigger arguments as well.<br /><br />She mentions that she was driving with 10 children (their 9 plus a friend) for 3 hours one day and she decided she was going to count all the dissonance that happened during the ride.

I think crisis are normal, great or small and arguments are also normal but I don't think they are necessary. <br /><br />When I handle them correctly they get fewer and fewer until they don't even bother me anymore. It's at that point that I stop handling them correctly and let them slide because they don't seem like a problem. Of course they start fighting again until they fight so much that I remember how to handle it. <br /><br />It's a cycle that I can't seem to get out of.Larahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12518442124374879454noreply@blogger.com
