[quote=Anonymous]This thread is so comforting because this is a constant issue with us with our 9 month old and older sibling who just turned 4 this month. I guess our kids are normal OP. I will say that my DC is seeing a therapist for separate issues at school (maybe anxiety) and we brought it up with her for ideas last week. She basically said what everyone has said that supervision is the only answer and holding the boundary when we need to. So saying something like "I know you love to be with your brother so much, we love how much you love him - that sound he's making says he needs space. Give him space please" If he doesn't, then help remove him. She also said we can help him start to understand that he is strong and still learning how to use his body. So saying things like, yo love your brother so much and want to give him big hugs, your brother is still small and your muscles are strong - you're still learning how to use them so we are going to help if your brother needs space.
