    It's been a new experience for me too Snowbird! I think boys are just SO competitive they can't help themselves, everyone i speak to who have boys say it is the same for them so i try to take deep breaths and take heart at that! I know how tiring it is tho, wish i could be more help but i know what its like, and obviously mine won't be growing out of it!x

    Make them relieve some of their pent up energy by working on your Garden! By the time they are done planting and weeding, they will be wanting a bath! Or, you could do what my Grandmother did to me after I would do yard work-Spray 'em with the hose! Wow, that just bought back some very dear memories to me...

    My boys never had a problem with bathing especially during the teen years. The two youngest, I could count on one hand the times the fought. Now the olders was always get'n his @$$ kicked by the two younger ones. Most of the time he deserved it so I just let them work it out

    Make them hug each other when you hear them fighting, boys hate to hug each other!

    LOL.

    It'll be worth a try.

    I bought them some Dial Ultimate Clean for Hair & Body when they were with me this weekend.

    They smelled so good when they left!

    different senses of smell and hormonal makeup i think. nest building hormones versus nest protecting hormones - and we're all happy

    I guess so, QL.

    Don't get me wrong; I enjoy having them; they always praise my cooking!

    I just don't understand the fighting and funky part.

    John Doe, when "we women" want your opinion, we'll give it to you!

    I believe this is an A-B conversation, so C your way out of it.
