[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and it's so interesting to see how many different points of view there are about this. I really appreciate folks weighing in. I tend to go right to the "omg he's a sociopath" perspective, and it's helpful to the opposite perspective which is that sometimes kids do this type of thing to each other. Not that it makes it acceptable behavior, but it doesn't mean he's a horrible person. Anyway, we had a chat and I ended up having him write an apology letter to his brother. [/quote] Oh lord. He is not a sociopath. He is a kid who is acting like a jerk. Focus on kindness in the house. Call him out for jerk behavior. But don’t make this more than it is. [/quote] I agree! I think I'm part of the problem here by overreacting. Reframing this behavior will help.[/quote]
