When To Separate The Children. by greatestluv4all: 7:01am On Dec 26, 2013 |
This is for parents with mixed sex as children. There comes a time when you need to separate them from doing some things together. .like bathing them all at once, sharing of bedspaces and the likes. How best do one carryout these task without creating friction, and not sending a wrong message between them? |

There comes a time when you need to separate them from doing some things together. .like bathing them all at once, sharing of bedspaces and the likes. How best do one carryout these task without creating friction, and not sending a wrong message between them? It depends on the resources available to you. Number of rooms in the house and if you have help with chores. 1. Generally, in a standard 3 bedroom flat, Daddy and mommy sleep in the master bedroom, all the boys in one, and the girls in one even as early as 1yr or less (girls rooms are usually painted with bright colors like Pink, yellow, with matching bedsheets / furniture, lots of adorable dolls that scare boys away. ). 2. If you have limited room, use double bunker beds to separate them rather than multiple beds. 3. As for bathing, start from day 1 to bath them separately. Let them take turns. However, if you didn't start on time, today (now) is the right time to bath the girls desperately. The idea is to treat your girls graciously, and respectfully like little princesses so they can grow up being soft, lady-like, and not accepting disrespect from men later. If their parents and brothers treat them with respect at home, they will demand for it outside and also will get attracted to gentlemen and not 'bedroom bullies' for date. 3 Likes |

@woged2005, perfectly sed. Am also of d opinion dat d seperation shud start from d onset. Boys shud have deir rooms seperatly frm d gals, teach d boys to respect ladies. Handle d gals with iron hand and at d same time like d princesses dey are. 1 Like |

Woged2005: Ok I'm gonna have to disagree with your post. Growing up, my brother was closest to me in age and as a result we did everything together up until secondary school. We bathed together, slept on the same bed till I was in SS1. It wasn't a lack of space thing, our house had 7 rooms. We were just together and treated pretty much the same by my parents. Now I have a son and a daughter and Im the same with them. They sleep on the same bed, that one you no fit try separate them sef. They bathe together, eat together play together. They only separate in school. We have 3 rooms, my husband and I have one, they have one and 1 is vacant. No body will agree o. I really don't see the need to separating them, at least not yet, he's 5 and she's 2. |

From the beginning! If there are different sexes. That way they never miss what they never had! |

@Deresh your post is somewhat disturbing oh. So you did and still doing all that just because 'you want them to bond'. I never shared same room with my brothers growing up, I bet you won't believe if I tell you we communicate everyday tho we are in diff continents, I trust them with my life. OP yes like Kawulia said from the beginning To each and their own oh |

greatestluv4all: It depends largely on what you epose them to. I dont have maid or help to tach them rubbish. On tv its Disney jnr and KidsCo. I am teaching them not to let anyone touch their privates. Kids are curious. @Ewuro it is not about bonding. I'm not trying to make them bond anything. They are innocent and dont know theirs a big deal in their being different. My daughter tries to stand and pee like her brother and its hilarious. Why should I seperate them and treat them differently because they are different sexes? 1 Like |

Seperating them nw means drawing the wrong signal, wen they ar of age, they wil b the ones 2 tel u to seperate them. |
Re: When To Separate The Children. by Daresh(f): 3:22pm On Jan 07, 2014 |
Exactly. My older brother moved out of the room himself. My younger brother moved in with my older brother when he was 13. No one seperated anyone, they both moved when they were ready. No need to separate. @Ewuro I'm not offended, I just dont see the need to start drawing lines. My son has been asked for a car bed sha , maybe it's time.

Daresh:Seriously? Now Is Pretty And Very Much Different From Then. |
Re: When To Separate The Children. by Dygeasy(m): 10:14am On Jan 08, 2014 |
Daresh:Look At You. Its Better To Do The Separation When They're Innocent. Not Like I'm Against Siblings Of Same Sex Being Together But In This Age, You Don't Wanna Know What Supposed Siblings Do Together. You Don't Need A Maid To Corrupt Your Kids And You Can't Totally Control What They're Exposed To Except They're Not Gonna Step Out Which Is Impossible. And Nobody Wants To Have A 'Masculinized' Female Child. Trust Me This Often Happens In Female Kids. It Takes God's Mercy To Make Children Turn Out As Their Parents Want. I Pray God Watches Over Your Kids And They Shall Live Long Enough For You To Enjoy Them. |
