AS any parents knows, looking after one kid can be difficult enough – without adding siblings into the mix.
While twins can be a handful, but triplets are another ball game altogether.
Dad-of-three Jake White came up with an ingenious way to stop his troublesome two-year-olds fighting in the back of the car, and has gone viral after posting his solution on Facebook.
Jake uploaded a selfie, taken from the front of the car, with his tots sitting peacefully in the back.
But the kids are unable to squabble, because each one has a divider between their child car seat.

Jake wrote: “And… no more car fighting. The guys at the drive-thru said it was genius. A day in the life of triplets.”
Apparently Stella, Jude and Xavier wouldn’t stop stealing each other’s snacks and water bottles.
Jake joked told BuzzFeed: “It was clear they needed some personal space.”
The enterprising dad partitioned off his kids’ car seats with two large pieces of foam core – and went on to enjoy an unusually silent car journey.
He added: “It is a good idea, and it works! Car rides are peaceful when the dividers are in, and quite the opposite without it.”

The ‘triplet hack’ went viral, with thousands of people sharing Jake’s post.
Facebook users called the move ‘genius’, but White told BuzzFeed it was ‘a logical simple fix’.
He added: “I have a background in fine art and emergency medicine.
“So it’s natural for me to combine safety, creativity and obviously peace when it comes to raising triplets.”
Apparently the problem solving helps Jake and his wife, who is studying to be a nurse practitioner, ‘make more time in your day for the learning and laughter’.
Jake said: “I’m always using creative solutions. You have to when you are outnumbered.
“I am lucky to be able to hang out with the coolest kids. They make me laugh all day long with their willingness to go along with all of his dad’s ideas.”
