[quote=Anonymous]^^ Totally agree with all those strategies. For ALL kids, not just the ones in OP's situation. [b]But *especially* for OP and her kids.[/b] It's about a growth mindset and it is so good for kids. Also agree with a PP about OP watching whether it's obvious she favors one of her kids. That dynamic can undo all the great work that following these links will set up. Knowing or feeling like a parent favors your other sibling over you is devastating, no matter how well a child seems to handle it or not notice it. It is always noticed, always felt, when it is there. Sometimes even when the parents aren't aware of it. Gotta nip that favoritism of one and little cutting blows to the other child in the bud. That is how you'll help your other child not feel bad, or even better, find their own joy at their own efforts regardless of what efforts their sibling makes.[/quote]
