The elder one is always timid and shy to express especially at conflict or in stress. The little however tend to perference do not assume responsibility even when he was at fault.
There was an incident last night. The glass dining table somehow had one of its 4 legs "detached" but luckily the table did not collapse and broke. When I spotted that, two kids were holding the leg and trying to align it back. Quickly I applied glue to seal it back but worrying that the leg will be detached again and so the table will collapse. I will hope it will not.
I had interrogated them who was at fault and how this incident happen. They could not offer a good explanation although did provide some brief details. Apparently I found out that the glue had degraded and so with slight push, the leg would be bent. I had a talk to them and pretended wanted to can them. I demanded the admission of who were at fault...
The elder one claimed the little one had pushed the table and he saw the leg bent and so help to hold the table. He said the little instead went upstair and came back with toys assume nothing happen. I turned and asked the little one if this was so. He silence neither admit or deny but just stared pity at me. Then I led the elder inside the wash room and pretended canning his brother. He somehow explained further after this but still did not admit either. I asked him to stare at the wall for a while and tell me what had happened.
A while later, he told me that he pushed the table but did not aware that the leg had bent while he went up to locate toys. Upon returning he saw his brother holding the table and so he helped.OK, this is abit better.
The elder one however, leaked out to him that I never canned him... I hope the little one will learn something but not treading this as a game..
I would need to spend more time talk to these two prince of mine.
