| The older one picks on the younger | Big feelings about losing their spot. | Special "big kid" jobs and private time with you. |
| One always plays the victim | Learned that tears bring you running. | Comfort both. Solve it together, not for them. |
| Fights over the same toy every day | It's not about the toy. | Timer turns — and notice what's underneath. |
