Sisterly jealousy is a universal emotion and it is a matter that needs to be managed in a healthy way, not to be prevented. Sibling relationship is the safest rehearsal for relationship with the world. The biggest gain is the ability to empathize. A state of being good or bad in sibling relationships is a normal and expected
balance. Minor scuffles, quarrels and tickling each other between siblings are expected behaviors and do not require parental intervention. “I think you can work it out with your brother, you can handle it.” It's healthy to say. However, physical and verbal violence indicates where a limit should be set by the parent. If the parent devalues the sibling, the other
child will devalue the sibling directly.
The point that can be intervened in sibling jealousy and alleviate the situation is related to strengthening the relationship between the two siblings
. For example, instead of reciprocal roles in the established games,
children should be in the same team, learn to win with cooperation, work in harmony to win together, share the victory, exchange ideas to win,
share the sadness when they lose, get excited and enjoy together in the process
br /> you can encourage.
Stories about brotherhood help especially younger children to understand the feeling of jealousy
, to share it with others, and to relax by realizing that this emotion is normal
.
Giving the older sibling responsibility for the younger sibling and not scolding the younger sibling will strengthen the relationship. It is also important
not to make comparisons between siblings. The comparison will be conveyed directly to the other sibling, not only verbally, but also in our bodily reactions, even with a tiny "off"
. Every child is different and unique. Respecting and approving the child's temperament and
character, accepting the child as they are will make them feel comfortable and safe
.
It is important to be the child's language here. " come on Let's talk a little bit about what's going on with you, I guess
you're a little sad, a little angry, it seems like nothing will ever be the same again.” You should be able to be the voice of the child in matters that are difficult to put into words. It will be comforting to be able to talk to the parent and give the child space to express what is really worrying him.
