[quote=Anonymous]My four year old only sees her cousin (also 4) during the holidays and other family events but their interactions are unpleasant. The cousin will take her things and my younger child's things without asking, not share, etc. My daughter is praised by grandparents for sharing with her cousin and my SIL/BIL do not intervene and SIL laughs off her daughter’s behavior saying “she’s a diva” while praising my children for being well mannered. My older daughter just said at Thanksgiving she doesn’t want to play with her cousin. My MIL has hinted at a ASD diagnosis and said my niece doesn’t play with other children outside of preschool. What do I say to my daughter? How do I stand up for my children if their cousin starts taking their belongings? I would expect my SIL/BIL to say something but they just laugh I guess because they think it’s cute?[/quote]
