[QUOTE="Nikimoto, post: 648978, member: 18791"] I am sorry one kid gets rough with the other. To me, it sounds like boundaries are disrespected by the rough kid, so easy kid is going to start harboring resentment some day. I was in easy kid's shoes, with no support from my folks, good you are looking out for him/her. As far as your spouse being unsupportive, I am truly sorry to hear that. Soapbox alert, but he has to do his job as your partner/backup, and do his job as parent to both these kids. They don't just raise themselves, and it's not just your job. I've got a very vivid 6 year old who gets rough with her 3 year old brother at times, but I use teachable moments whenever possible. I remind her that nobody twice her age and twice her size is over here picking on her. I give her some room to think, sometimes in time out. Hugs mama. [/QUOTE]
