Disobedient children

Q: I am a single parent and have two kids a boy and a girl. Both of them are very disobedient. They keep on fighting for little things. Everybody gets irritated of them... both have violent and destructive natures. They do not tolerate each other at all. In short both are mannerless and don't want to understand anything. I have made them understand politely and harshly in both manners. The result is the same. In short they let me down in front of everyone due to their violent speech and behaviour. Kindly help me and guide me!

Zakaat on dollars

Q: In the country I stay, there is a big difference in the black dollar and official dollar rate. The dollar in this country is not the local currency. When I change dollars, I change on the black market because of the rate being higher. I normally take out my zakaat in the local currency. On the dollars that I have, should I take out my zakaat on the black market rate or on the official rate?
