Sibling tension is a normal part of family life, but when one or more kids are neurodivergent, the challenges can feel even more intense. In this episode, we peel back the layers of comparison, conflict, and misunderstanding to reveal what’s really going on beneath the surface. Join us as we explore how to support every child’s needs, create a sense of fairness, and build stronger sibling connections that last.
What to expect in this episode:
- What if those constant fights are actually your child’s way of learning emotional intelligence?
- Why does meeting each child’s unique needs build more trust than trying to treat them the same?
- How humor, honesty, and real conversations can ease sibling tension before it turns toxic
- Why stepping back from sibling drama and coaching through conflict leads to stronger, smarter kids
- How to create a family culture where kids lift each other up—even when their needs and personalities clash
