[quote=Anonymous]This may not be what you are looking for, but I’ve noticed now as my kids get older (youngest is mid elementary) that the two boys are much closer than they are with their older sister, and we have made some adjustments accordingly. We try to have more family movie nights, more board game nights, go out to restaurants together as a family to coax them to chat rather than dine and dash. I think sometimes the dynamics with three can get tricky, and you have to adjust your parenting accordingly so that they feel like a trio of siblings rather than a pair plus one. Obviously families of three kids vary in their makeup - triplets or all three of the same sex or different age spread - but I do know a lot of families like mine, that try to handle the dynamic of one sibling left out.[/quote]
