Our 6-yr-old has always been encouraged to think of his baby brother's feelings first. We have never had much sibling rivalry because he has almost a parent-like attitude toward our little one (20 months), and delights in demonstrating kindness and extending patience when the little guy's needs come first or when he messes up his toys, etc. It has been a huge blessing for us as parents to see the constant positive interaction between them. I hesitate to take much credit for this, though, as our younger one seems to be more strong-willed; I think selflessness will be more difficult to convey to him than it was to our first!<BR/><BR/>I loved reading all of yours!
