[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a sign that's red on one side and green on the other, hang it with yarn on 7's door. Have 7 keep her door closed all the time. Teach 2 that when the sign is green she can go in and when it's red she can't. Tell 7 that once a day she has to make the sign green when 2 wants to go in, and it would be smart of her to direct 2 to things 7 is okay with her playing with. Also teach 2 she needs permission to touch other people's things. [/quote] Do not do this. You’re older child deserves her own things in her own space not disturbed by her little sister. Parent the two-year-old. Tell her no. Reinforce that. You’re basically teaching your younger child that there are no boundaries and she can do what she wants. I’m willing to bet your seven-year-old is going to grow up hating her little sister and you for allowing it. Grow a parental backbone and parent the toddler.[/quote]
