[quote=Anonymous]It's not abnormal behavior for a 5 year old. 5 is still really young, especially when they aren't used to sharing attention. They still need guidance and modeling. Give him things to do with the baby- and not just be the diaper fetcher. Show him games he can play with the baby- point out if he makes her laugh. 5 year olds love to be jokesters so he'll love an easily amused audience. It's going to be hard but try to relax when he interacts with her don't act like his every move is going to hurt her. Realize he doesn't want to interact with her at all times, while you and grandma might think it's cute she's trying to play with him, in his view she's being a pest. So move her away and don't let her bug him. If you can try to carve out some special time just for you and him, he probably misses his auntie.[/quote]
