[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp here. I very clearly remember at one party, I let the younger sister play with one of her brother’s new birthday gifts and brother was objecting (and very quickly got over it).

My friend made a comment on how I made my son share, even on his birthday. I thought that he should of course share.[/quote]

This will be a memory for your child in later life. "I never got anything of my own, even on my birthday."[/quote]

I don’t think that is true. Our kids want for nothing. He got 10+ different versions of the same thing. Think Pokemon cards, nerf guns, transformers type toy. Sharing with sibling did not traumatize him. This may just be a personality trait. Both my boys don’t seem overly attached to items. They often would play together.

My youngest is the girl and she didn’t have to share as much since older siblings were never interested in her items. I see some of the girls and they absolutely seem to have jealousy between siblings. Perhaps it is because girl gifts aren’t as easily shared.[/quote]
