Sibling Rivalry in These Troubled Times

In these coronavirus covid-19 lockdown days, many parents and children are struggling.  Nobody knows when the schools will reopen, or whether parents should send their children back to school.  Not being able to go outside or interact with their friends is creating stress for children and families.  Conflicts between children are occurring more frequently as everyone is on edge.  And outside of the watchful gaze of teachers and educators, some children are more at risk of violence or abuse.  

 

According to this article from the New York Times, in the past, families that had several children who were close in age had a higher infant mortality rate than other families.  I wonder whether this is still true today in cultures and/or countries that have unusually large families.  

 

Sibling rivalry is something those of us who have siblings have all probably experienced.  Again, I wonder whether rivalry in families and in societies, such as China, where single children are the norm, is expressed outside the home.  

Sibling rivalry can help children to learn to navigate relationships.  It can also have the opposite effect, and can be vicious.  

 

Nonviolent Communication (NVC) can be an effective way to address and resolve conflict between and among siblings.  Marshall Rosenberg, the founder of Nonviolent Communication, has witnessed children as young as four using NVC effectively.  NVC is based on empathy, which is defined within NVC as honouring feelings and needs - both ours and other people's.  

 

For more about NVC, go here for six short films with Marshall Rosenberg, in which he explains the basics of NVC.  

 

For more about how to use NVC with children, go here for my ebook, Affirmations for Parents.

How to Conquer and Eliminate Debt

When we are in debt, we tend to feel extremely stressed.  The debts pile on top of us, higher and higher.  We panic, doing this and doing that, trying to reduce the debt.

We experience feelings of overwhelm, frustration and helplessness.

These feelings of anxiety and  panic can increase the problem.  We worry.  We have sleepless nights.  If I sound like I know how this feels, it's because I do.  I've been through this myself.

However, there is a solution.

When we feel anxious, upset or worried, when we panic and can't seem to find a way out, we are unlikely to be able to think straight.  However, when we calm down, we can find a way to solve this problem.

Debt DOES NOT have to be an insurmountable problem.  And, over time, we can completely get rid of our debt - we can completely eliminate it.
