We totally agree to you. Jealousy is part of a person’s nature, plus some social men and women have it in greater measure than the others.

However, because a young child doesn’t have past impressions, when a specific minimal standard of attention happens to be compensated towards the son or daughter, if the parent(s) feel that he is displaying high degrees of envy, it is advisable to assist him handle the feeling from an earlier age.

The simple truth is, for the person that is jealous no level of attention is “enough”. a parent can really help their child observe that envy can be a monster that is eternally hungry. The way in which forward is for the little one to see that she’s being unreasonable whenever she makes needs beyond a place, and also for the moms and dad to aid her accept her feeling in order to find happiness by handling it. Easier said than done, i am aware. рџ™‚

It’s harder for grownups to control envy since it happens to be more deeply ingrained inside them as time passes, and unfortuitously, it is seen erroneously as “love”, leading to misery for everybody involved.

I’m working on a program to greatly help parents manage envy inside their kids. The launch is tentatively planned for summertime 2015.
