I spend a lot of time @ my sister's house visiting my 3 nephews. Her two oldest boys are from a different dad who isn't around anymore and the youngest from her current husband. The boy's ages are 5, 6, and 7. The 2 older boys, Justin and Daniel, get no positive attention it seems from niether mom or the new dad. It seems the only attention the older boys get is punishment. Occasionally i go over there and when there's trouble for them 2, i find myself wanting to defend them somehow but i usually bite my tongue.
My sister and her husband are so hard on those 2 older boys and so linient with baby Johnny. Like this, baby Johnny gets to stay downstairs and watch cartoons on any given school nite as late as he can stay up but Justin and Daniel have to be in bed by 9 o'clock sharp or thier azz is grazz.
I mean, its bad enough baby johnny will have all the social problems affiliated with being the youngest but to be spoiled rotten on top of it? Any suggestions?
