[quote=Amaze0707]It’s natural that your toddler feels a bit put out after the arrival of your new baby. You did a good job asking him to help with the baby. Keep affirming him for his “grown-up” capabilities and point out some of the advantages of being older. You might say something like, “You are such a big boy now! You can go and play your toys. The baby is too little to do that.” As you’re aware, your older child needs to be reassured that he’s special and unique. So let him know that you love him and praise him generously when he’s helpful or kind toward the baby. Hang in there – things will get better soon.[/quote]
