After reading the Rescuer
Syndrome section of your website I was inspired to try Byron Katie's approach
to her sons arguing.
Two of my sons age 10 and 3 argue some of the time and I always end up
somewhere in the middle and nearly always being the bad guy to either one or
both. It's impossible to please both and if you punish one it is bound to be
the wrong one (in their eyes).
So the day I read your site as if on cue the boys had a big row. I took a
massive step back and ignored the pleas from both to intervene and tell the
other off.
I just looked on to see where this would lead. My youngest son, who generally
comes off worse as he is not as physically or verbally able as the older,
showed his frustration by tearing up a picture of his brother saying "this is
what I think of you".
At this point the argument seemed to fizzle out and ended up with older son
explaining to younger how by tearing up his picture he had hurt his feelings
and then asked him "How would you like it if I tore up a picture of you?"
Younger son said that "It would make me feel sad". With that their argument
was settled and they went off together and played happily for the rest of the
afternoon.
I was absolutely amazed. They had argued, sorted out the argument with older
son explaining his feelings to younger and I stayed in everyone's good books.
I call that a result.
Sending you thanks

I always interrupt my wife, and I have a hard time
listening to her. I found some very useful beginnings to healing my inabilities.
