[quote=Anonymous]Anxiety that she’s not loved or wanted. Probably because of new sibling. I would give empathy. X happened/A said Y to you, and you’re feeling very sad. You’re worried that no one wants you around/that A doesn’t love you/ that mommy will be mad at you. In as kind and caring a voice as you can muster. Let her say her worries. Reassure her that it’s hard to become a big sister again, and that it’s normal to have worries. Maybe tell one story about how you or dad had worries like that. After she’s talked out her worries you can tell her at the end I’ll always love you no matter what, you’ll always be an important part of this family or whatever. But don’t make it into a contradiction of what she feels. A bit of one on one time would probably be good too.[/quote]
