We all are so common in having a fight with someone or other for the most important object in our homes that is, "REMOTE CONTROL" of our TVs.....So do you have fight with any of your family member???? and with whom?????

No, we don't fight over the remote control, but then there are only two of us. I'd suggest having time slots for each person -- preferably at a time when that person's favorite shows are on. Set a schedule of "remote control ownership" and stick to it! Of course there will always be exceptions, like when there's an important event which more than one other person wants to watch. In those cases, the one who's giving up their time slot needs to be compensated in some way. It's really important to learn to share -- especially for kids, but even for adults. Everyone deserves a turn, but no one deserves total control over a shared item, whether it's the TV, the telephone, or the bathroom! Good luck, and stand firm!!!!

Ahh that I do...always and with my hubby..hehehe! There are times when an interesting show is on Food Network and my hubby will not watch it, so I have to hide the remote and make sure he doesn't get it to change the channel. But when I can't hide it I will have to prevent him from snatching it and there starts a war for the remote..lol Before I got married I fought with my brother back home..boy it was fun!

It is normally understand who is chasing after which program. So there will always be someone "in control" of the remote control. We just give it up when our turn is over. :P

actually I am pretty lucky. We have 3 TV's. I can watch a program, my hubby can watch another and the kids another. So we never really have a remote problem in my house !!
