[QUOTE="sjexpress, post: 541014"] It is unfortunatly a common thing in our house that difficult child treats easy child horribly! In fact last nite I was the one crying by myself about it because I feel so bad for easy child. difficult child is just so mean to easy child. He teases him, is nasty to him, bullies him constantly, etc... I have no idea why though. When you talk seriously to difficult child to ask what the problem is, he just says he hates his brother and he bothers him! easy child is luckily one of these kids who can play by himself and has a great imagination. Yet, if easy child is happy doing whatever it is he is doing, this bothers difficult child and difficult child starts annoying easy child and won't leave him alone. I think it bugs difficult child to see easy child happy and having fun! Even if easy child is in his own room, difficult child has to go and see what he is doing! The part that cracks me up is that many times difficult child wants easy child to play with him and since no matter what they try to play ends up with fighting and difficult child somehow getting aggressive and hurting difficult child, easy child has now started to get smarter as he gets older and is refusing to even start playing with difficult child. He just says NO when difficult child asks him to play. Of course this too sets difficult child off! Maybe if difficult child did not have to always win, cheat or have things his way, it would be better! difficult child of course is always "right".
