Good analogy-I vaguely remember pouting, whining, misbehaving and pretending not to hear when told to stop it (which drove my mom nuts) for what seemed like months after my brother was born. I even asked her if he could be given to someone else, which did not go over well.

wow! you remember? i am only 13 mo. older than xsbro, so i don't remember much. i liked him til he stopped letting me boss him around and wouldn't listen to me anymore. : (

xsteen gave me fits when xsboy was born. she was fine with him, but she became incredibly clingy and wouldn't let me out of her sight. sounds very much like what anisette is feelng. xsteen was 3 when her bro was born.

When my brother was born (i was 5 1/2) I saw him in the hospital nursery with all the other babies and asked if we could leave him there and take him 2 girls instead. He's 19 now and I still think that would've been a good idea.

When Jax was informed the puppy would be taken back to where we got her, she started screaming about how we couldn't throw the puppy in the trash, if we did that we were bad people.

She has had a few toys disappear for a time because of refusal to pick them up and put them away - she thought they had been thrown in the trash.
