After writing about my jealousy and insecurities as a mother, I turn to address my angels. Yes, something that all parents fear - Jealousy among siblings sometimes also known as sibling rivalry.
In my experience, if there is no rivalry among your children, there is probably no relationship too. Children fight and play to find their place in society. Our job is to teach them to do it well and fair.
My eldest child always confess that she loves her younger siblings very much ( or at least we did our very best to brainwash her- no less). However, when it comes to jealousy, she suddenly turns into the old monster.  I feel that the root of it is always her own insecurity as in mine. When mommy gives baby sister that tight hug, or when baby sister is given a new toy. Most of it can be overcome by the reassurance that I love her just the same in her own way. I will encourage her by saying that if she behaves the correct way, both baby sister and mommy will love her even more.
