Great point! I'm always telling my 11 yr old that "he thinks you're cool thats why he wants to play with your stuff". He doesn't really bother his little sister, they have their bouts here and there but nothing like how he is with the older children. He's always wanting to do what the older boys are doing but he's still way to young. I was the oldest of five and I helped my Mom with my youngest sister. But I think girls are different I have a hard time trying to get my 11 year old to understand that he is just a small kid. He thinks I am just letting him get away with hitting him and he takes it personally. I'm going to have to have a heart to heart with him and tell him he needs to spend more time together and then maybe he'll leave him alone.
Thanks again that's a great idea.
