My four and a half year old has started to become quite mean to her baby brother who's nine months.
She isn't left out in anyway and I've tried doing what all the books/sites have suggested by including her in everything and spending one on one time with her.
It's actually beginning to worry me :( everywhere I go I see doting big sisters and it seems like my DD really resents DS.
Sometimes she will hold his hand but will do it rather aggressively? Yesterday she was also playing with her new tea set and pretended to pour it over him and said how hot it was?
Is this normal? I'm lost tbh this is all new to me.
