Is Peace Between Young Ones and Older Siblings REALLY Possible?

sibling conflicts Jan 31, 2025

Hey there,

Have you ever caught your older child rolling their eyes, storming off, or just flat-out losing their patience with a younger sibling?

You're not alone. Many parents tell me they wish their older kids would just "act their age" instead of getting caught up in the chaos. The good news? There are real, practical ways to help them navigate these tricky sibling dynamics—and I’m sharing five of them in this week's video.

Yes, there is work we need to do with your younger child as well, but this video focuses in on working on your older child's heart. If you want to help your older child handle their younger sibling with more patience, wisdom, and even kindness, this video is for you.

All my best,

B.J.
