[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 399011, member: 1991"] I'm not there with you so I can't say for sure, but it seems to me that easy child has a just grievance and difficult child needs to hear it, just as easy child needs to be heard. if you rush in to comfort difficult child with a "there there, it's OK, I know you can't help it," you're possibly making things worse. Even if difficult child can't help it. In other words, the air needs to be cleared, and you need to sometimes step back and not take sides in any obvious way. Very hard to do. Marg [/QUOTE]
