DOBSON: Sibling rivalry sometimes sparked by parents

By JAMES DOBSON, Focus on the Family

QUESTION: If jealousy between kids is so common, then how can parents minimize the natural antagonism children feel for their siblings?

DR. DOBSON: It’s helpful to avoid circumstances that compare them unfavorably with each other. They are extremely sensitive to the competitive edge of their relationship. The question is not “How am I doing?” it is “How am I doing compared with John or Steven or Marion?” The issue is not how fast I can run, but who crosses the finish line first. A boy does not care how tall he is; he is vitally interested in who is tallest.
