[quote=Anonymous]Your older son is an instigator. He knows his power and he fully wields it to his own benefit. I think you need to work with him on his empathy and social skills. I would steer him more towards playing with older kids where he can be on his own level rather than younger where he exerts dominance. And encourage a sport or activity that he will have to work at and struggle with a bit to master. It will help stretch him and give him some firsthand experience with not being the golden boy. In the immediate party situation, I would give him a job to do or an activity to run, not just have him there participating. The little kids will still see him and enjoy him, but he won’t be part of their group. [/quote]
