[QUOTE="firehorsewoman, post: 543429, member: 15804"] I would like to hear what others here do to support their difficult child's easy child siblings. My daughter is very often the victim of my difficult child's verbal, emotional and physical volatility. On the flip side she is his main provider of his emotional support, entertainment, attention and friendship. She is bearing a huge burden...has since he was born. Both her father and I have noticed her suffering more visibly lately. We are trying to give her time alone, time with friends without difficult child, we sent them to different day camps some weeks this summer, etc. I have searched online for local sibling support groups but did not find anything. I am hoping once we get a good referral for a therapist for difficult child that person can also meet with easy child. I have ordered her a book I found on Sibsupport website. I don't know if she is old enough to participate on their online forum for kids. I don't know how I feel about her doing that yet. Would love to hear other ideas. thanks [/QUOTE]
