[quote=Anonymous]We have a somewhat similar dynamic in my extended family, though kids are closer in age. My kids know that cousin Janie can have a hard time behaving appropriately sometimes, and we’ve had discussions about how it can feel unfair when Janie seemingly gets rewarded for behavior that they’d get in trouble for (and how that behavior still isn’t okay For them!). We talk also about how on the flip side, it would be hard to deal with the big feelings Janie deals with. They get it, and at this point (kids are teens/tweens now) we no longer even discuss it much - it just is what it is. That said, I make sure my kids have an escape when it gets to be too much.[/quote]
