Advice please: my 5yr old son is jealous of my 3yr old daughter. He’s been acting out (knocked over a small bookcase; pulled a fixture out of the wall), crying and screaming, throwing tantrums. My husband and I are losing our minds. My son struggles to communicate his feelings but things he says makes me think jealousy. I try to give him 1:1 time but it never is enough. I’ve also been telling him that he is important and I love him just as much as his sister. I’ve been struggling with anger and depression so he may also be feeding off of me. Any supportive suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!! UPDATE: Since increasing 1:1 time with my son he’s done a 180! His love language is definitely quality time, which is mine so I completely understand how he feels! Thanks everyone!
