Baby and childhood illnesses: jealousy BABY AND CHILDHOOD ILLNESSES: JEALOUSY
Jealousy implies a sense of insecurity combined with a desire to monopolize; within the family circle, there can be many such combinations, none of which leads to happiness. It is more common with a first child, particularly when the second baby arrives, and it may be aggravated if parents make individious comparisons. It may readily be worsened if there are personal feuds between the parents, if there is a show of favouritism for one, or if one is disciplined to the benefit of the other.
Often jealousy leads to direct physical violence with the rival. But frequently there are other low-key methods that are adopted more subtly. A child may revert to some former childhood behaviour, such as bed-wetting, thumb sucking, or clinging to a particular parent, may withdraw from the family circle, develop anti-social attitudes to others, especially at school, where it may act as an attention-getter.
Treatment
Ideally parents will prepare child if there is to be an addition to the family in the near future. Playing it cool and not overdoing this is important, otherwise the child may suspect something sinister. Avoiding obvious parental favouritism is important. All efforts must be made to let all the children in a family know they are loved and wanted and will always remain secure in their parents' affection.
