About this event

Dealing with sibling rivalry can be one of the most difficult and frustrating aspects of family life in any family; and sibling rivalry between twins and multiples has special dimensions that sets it apart from what goes on between singleton siblings.  In this presentation, we’ll look at how best to interpret and manage the rapid cycles of symbiotic and competitive behavior between multiple siblings.  We will discuss how to encourage strong, healthy sibling relationships, create clear guidelines and boundaries, model independent problem solving and maintain your own sanity.  Topics will include empathy, sharing, communication, guidelines and how-to’s for parental intervention, and managing aggressive behaviors.
