I was hoping someone could help.
Usually im quite good at finding solutions to things or being quite laid back and not letting it bother me but this has me stumped.
Jessica is very mild mannered and quite tolerant of Joe but doesnt really want to play with him. She is just over 3.
Joe is 13 months and wants to do whatever she is doing, play with whatever she is playing with and in general is being a nuisance to her.
How do I overcome this reluctance on his part to not snatch her stuff and. Its more his doing than hers but Im worried he will push her too far.
Joe just doesnt seem interested in anything other than what she has at the time and Jess isnt old enough to understand its just what babies do.
I have a gate on the living room door for the sole purpose of Jess being able to play on the floor sometimes without interferance. But that means Im usually in a different room from one of them at any one time. Its jess I really feel for as it seems as though he is allowed to get her stuff but its a difficult one, one of them is going to end up the loser.
I hope I have explained this properly. I feel Im going about this all wrong and hopefully someone will have some good advice.
