[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 467069, member: 11791"] Hi, and welcome. Didn't want you to think we're not around... I'm squeezing this in between work meetings, but... a couple of flags went off in my head on this... 1) When did she turn 5? I'm guessing, either about the time the baby was born, or within a few months of that, right? 2) There is a new baby around. PART of this may in fact be totally normal - but the approach being taken needs to recognize what is going on, first. If this is full-blown sibling rivalry, you have to change the approach. Punishment will NOT work. It just further proves to her that you love the new baby and hate her. It destroys her bond with you. Somehow, I'd be looking for ways to address the whole sibling thing, as a first avenue... [/QUOTE]
