[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you ask her to help you come up with a system to make things more fair? So you rotate who gets to pick the movie, or every time more than one kid wants to stir the oatmeal you draw straws. Life isn’t fair, she’s right. We do our best to make it fair where we can. [b]But in general I think this is a kid who might be feeling like she isn’t important. Can you help her feel valued and special, and see if her feeling of unfairness lessens?[/b] When my kid said “it’s not fair!” I’d acknowledge he was right. It’s not fair. Then I’d ask him to problem solve - did he have a solution that was fair, and not just advantaging himself? If he had one we tried it.[/quote] OP here. Thank you. I bet you’re right about this.
