[quote=Anonymous]I have 4 kids and am mostly a sahm (work consulting 5 hours a week). DH works 8-6 weekdays. He is not engaged with them and isn’t able to attune to their needs. All the kids prefer me by far. You need to emphasize to your DD that you and her are a team. She should help with the toddler too. You need to be fun and mindful and engaging to her. Don’t let her know if she hurts your feelings. She won’t win at life with aligning with a man against other women. What’s she into? You can nurture that and be into it too. A little bribery and fun never hurts. Cmon you only have her and one toddler. You can do so much with her !! Just hand the toddler a kindle or color wow book and you have the 8 year old alll to yourself. [/quote]
