[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think 10 yo is struggling. This is not a sibling issue really, it’s about her acting out and it doesn’t really have anything to do with sibling. After all, jealousy is really about being unhappy and less about what the other person is doing. 10 yo needs a lot of empathy and support right now since she is crying out for some attention. You can do that while also reinforcing boundaries - ie she can’t crap on her sisters activity.[/quote] I agree with this. But I’d opt for a combo “cut the shit” and trying to have some deeper talks about what’s up with my 10 y/o. In a calm moment you need to discuss how you won’t tolerate her dumping on her sister’s activity or mocking her. But also, what’s up and let’s figure out a way forward with this new activity. She’ll need to be able to attend *some* of the time without throwing a tantrum. What could you do to entice her that time might be fun for her too. [/quote]
