Sibling Revelry |
In a fairy tale world, relationships between siblings are always pleasant-no fights, no problems, no worries. They never have to worry about each other because they’re always helping each other, always cheerful and smiling. But the again, let’s go back to a little place I’d like to call reality.
Fights, fights, figths. “It’s all your fault!” “You’re alaways bothering me!” “I’m going to tell mom!” They’re always on our nerves, always bugging us, always torturing us. When I was a little kid, my older siblings always teased me. They would always make fun of me ’till I had tears in my eyes. It was always difficult to talk to them about my concerns because most of the time, they would end up making the decisions for me. living a life with two moms (my mom and sister) and two dads (my dad and brother) is hard. I was always asked to do chores-like I had to do everything around the house. Seriously, I felt I was Cinderella. We always had trouble understanding each other maybe because I was so much younger than them (age gap: eight and 10 years). And because I was the youngest, they always knew what I was up to so it was hard for me to learn anything on my own. The more I tried to be good, the more they thought that I was up to something. But as I grew older, I began to understand their intentionsfor me and they are all good. I was just too stubborn to realize that they love me, which is why they always watched out for me. Yes, it’s normal for siblings to fight over pretty things. However, after all the fights , eventually we always made up.
We can really never expect to live the fairy tale life with our siblings. There will always be times when we will get into misunderstandings. Whenever a conflict arises, remember that it’s just a phase that you have to overcome. I can never have the same bond that I have with my siblings with anyone else. I’d rather be with them than anyone else in the whole wide world.

Child Wants his Parents Together |
Question: My son is seven-years-old and does very well in school. I was a very young mother and his father was gone from his life for about two and a half years before getting visitation rights. He spends most of his visits with his grandmother and when he returns he always has a false hope that his father and I are going to be together someday. But when he is with me the subject is never brought up. Then he called me, while on one of his visits, and said that his dad still loved me. He wanted to know why I don’t love him. Is he old enough to know the truth about the break-up? Thank you for your advice.
Answer: Your son is being placed in an unhealthy triangle between you and his father. From your testimony, it appears that his dad and perhaps his grandmother have been fueling his attempts to get you and his dad back together. A child will often take on this position, even thinking that he is to blame for the separation or divorce of his parents. Your son should never have the burden of that blame. But in your family’s case, his father seems to be the one placing your son in the role of matchmaker.
Don’t offer all the details of your break-up to him. What he does need to know, however, is that you and his father do not love each other anymore and that you will never get back together again. That does not mean that you both do not love him or will not act with respect toward each other. This can be conveyed in an age-appropriate manner without condemning his father or giving him the whole truth behind your break-up. Perhaps he could better understand how you don’t want to be with his dad if you compared it to something that has happened in his life. For example, if he’s had good friends that he decided were not his good friends anymore, so he broke off his friendship with them.
Ideally, you and his father should attend a few therapy sessions together with a family therapist who has counseled couples in similar situations. Perhaps his dad could be persuaded that it’s best for his son to come to an understanding about the finality of his relationship with you. A talented therapist can do this without making his dad feel like the “bad guy.” Everyone needs to be saying the same words to him about the nature of your complicated relationship. Please get your son the help that he needs. If you don’t seek help, your son will become more and more obsessed with the notion that he must get you back together again.
