Because they are kids - You need to go into Adult mode - try diversion tactics, give them things to do and show them how - praise them for their achievements and and if you like at time go into kids mode join in and have fun with them. Have time for them.  

Because you're not controlling your kids, you're letting them control you. Be the parent and teach them they are the children and you as the parent are in control.

insanity is inheritied - - - - -you get it from your kids. hahahah

Seriously, give them something to do when they're screaming and yelling and fighting adn trying to get your attention. Distract them. Give them rewards for the desired behavior. Rewards work better than punishments.

Great, teach them that if they act like idiots and drive mom crazy, they can get a reward for the simple task of stopping for an hour or so only to do it again so they can get another "reward".

Because you are allowing them to.

Because they are KIDS!

If there are no consequences for their actions then their actions will continue. Try giving back what they get and you will see it stop. If it bothers you when they make a lot of annoying noise, find something that annoys them and do it back to them. When they complain about it then you let them know that every time they annoy you, you will do the same to them. If that doesn't work, hit them where it really hurts, take away what they love and don't give it back for a while, like until their behavior improves. If it doesn't improve then you take more away. If food is what they love, take that away. There is ALWAYS a way of hitting below the belt. YOU are the parent, TAKE CONTROL!!!

You have SEVERAL good answers, make your choice or use them all, but first of all, BE THE PARENT!

Hey girl, listen, I think you should have your tubes tied and never be allowed to propagate again in the future.

Because of your gene in them.

the only way to know that answer is to ask them.
