[quote=Anonymous]On the bigger issue, I had a big problem with my boys in which my older really thought we were favoring the younger. I think you really need to work on this dynamic. Here is what I did and it really has worked (over a bit of time) I read Siblings with Rivalry, which really gave us some good practical ideas and how to react in certain situations. I got the older one in therapy - he learned to recognize his own insecurities And we did some therapy with both parents and the older one - he needed to hear from us why we do certain things, and he needed to vent his grievances. the younger one has also done a little therapy to balance out his own needs My DH and I worked on our language and they way we talk to both kids It has taken time but the dynamic is a lot better[/quote]
