Sibling Squabbles - Are you stepping in too quickly?

11/12/2017

 
Jessica Cleary, Psychologist

If you have two or more children OR have a sibling yourself you probably know a thing or two about sibling rivalry. Recently I was interviewed by Julia Hammond from MyDeal to provide my take on how to respond to sibling rivalry. For us parents, even though hearing these squabbles can totally push our buttons, we need to stop ourselves from stepping in too quickly as it can rob our kids the opportunity to practice the important skills of problem solving, negotiation and compromise. Check out the full article here.
