Big Brother versus Little Brother

August 6, 2012

My oldest child has gotten more on my nerves this past weekend. Brad keeps harassing his brother—biting his feet; picking him up and trying to toss Kalen on the floor; taking Kalen’s toys from him; and waking Kalen out of his sleep. Kalen cannot do squat without Brad messing with him. Even when crawling, Brad tries to block Kalen from moving around. I do not know what is going on. Is it the medication? Is it sibling rivalry? Does he dislike his brother? Whatever it is, it is getting on my last and first nerve. If he wants to torture others, I have plenty of relatives for him to beat up. I can buy a punching bag or a Boppo toy. I can enroll him in anger management, but do not torture little brother, more than necessary.
