@Angeline,
sibiling jelousy can’t be removed but it can be reduced. I know that Ryan is trying to get more attention and am trying my best not to play into his tactics. Now at 2 Roy is able to do most of the stuff that Ryan do. Being younger he is also more willing to help out and will even cheerfully say ” I help Kor Kor(Ryan) ” and start moving the clothes himself. It works well as a motivator for him when he sees his younger brother helping him out.

girl, if its based on that conversation, I don’t think its an ability problem leh… but I love your tactics…. cos’ it rids the laziness of human nature…

if based on that conversation, I see it as he wants your attention. He is jealous that you ‘help’ or in other words ‘pay attention’ to Roy more than him…

I get that alot from Keatkeat too in the past. He refused to accept that being younger needs more attention no matter how I explain. But he knows that its true. He just REFUSED to accept.

I hate siblings jealousy because of my childhood. So I build up Binbin, and so Binbin is so much ‘more developed’ than kids of his age…. so whatever Keatkeat can do, Binbin can do too…*grin*
