I want this to work but when I try to teach them , they get anxious and fights break out , i cant seperate them and do it that way because they are more concerned what the other is doing and then precious gets anxious and wants to attack ... im so fustrated |
I wonder if they can pick up on your feelings in dealing with the situation? If you are not "in command" and showing apprehension and fear of this working, they may just be reacting the same way. You will have to make the time if this is going to work. They only know what it is that is expected of them if you tell them otherwise they are going to act and react the only way they know. I understand how difficult this for you but you have to be the one to make this happen. Good luck. Hugs to you.
