[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Add some perks for the older child. Let him do things that his sister is not allowed to do. I know it is easier for you if they are both doing the same thing at the same time, but it isn't working for him. [/quote] +1[/quote] +100 Divide and conquer with your spouse so you can let your older child do something the three year old just can't--or that the six year old just really really wants to do and it would be nice not to have to worry about a younger sibling. Like, a special movie outing, favorite restaurant, a museum of interest. Consider even an overnight while the other parent does some fun things one on one with the three year old. Once I weaned by second child, I took my first child on an overnight trip to Lancaster, PA, and we had the best time. [/quote]
