My kids fight from morning to night but it is nothing violent like that. They have hit each other, mostly the 4 yr. old as he still uses hitting as his "verbal" emotions when he can't say what he wants, but never pulled hair or fist fights or anything that turns very violent. They are mostly yellers and it drives me NUTS-lol!!
Erica knows what she was like as a child. We have talked about it. I've also discussed it with Joy and Angela. But then Erica was no ordinary child and if she was born today, doctors would be able to treat her and she would have a much happier childhood. As it is, she is very thankful that she was born into the family that she had. Long story short since you are a newbie: Erica was born with clinical depression, social anxiety, and OCD. Her only happy memory was when she was 5 (she and my mom say she was 6, so she probably was) and got her original Cabbage Patch Doll for Christmas. That is the only spontaneous smile we ever got out of her. She still has that doll. Now that she is on meds, she understands what she missed as child. I really admire and respect her as an adult.

I can honestly say that my kid have never gotten into a fist fight, smacked each other or pulled each other's hair.
