my friend has 3 kids (1 boy, 2 girls) and is preg with 4th. Her dd1 is (to use my friend's words) a PITA. Now obviously i dont live with them so dont see this but i really think they have a problem relationship. Whatever dd1 does my friend is annoyed with. The other day whilst my friend and I were on the phone, dd1 started shouting at dd2 because she had been playing with her toys and she wanted them back (having just got in from school). MY friend ended up yelling at dd1 because she was being horrid. DD2 can do no wrong in my friend's eyes. DD1 was like this before dd2 was born so not necessarily a displacement thing but i am really feeling for her. If dd2 is crying/screaming about something, friend will tell dd1 off for annoying her thereby making the scene dd1's fault.
What can I suggest without falling out with her?
