Sibling Aggression & Conflict | Why It Happens & What To Do (Step by Step) | 17

The Mom Psychologist Show

Few things are more triggering than seeing your kids fight nonstop with each other. And when there's aggression involved, our brains go into emergency mode and want to make it stop right NOW.

And rightfully so. Our main job is to keep our kids safe and aggression towards others is a threat to safety.

There's so much to say about sibling conflict but in today's episode, I want to talk specifically about the dynamic where an older sibling (I'm imagining toddler or preschool age) becomes aggressive towards their younger sibling (an infant, young toddler).

How do we respond? What's the best way to intervene in these situations? Let's discuss.
