Parenting Siblings: Guidebook for all parents and families who are expecting new brothers and sisters – Bringing up children as a team, without conflict or jealousy
About this eBook
Wouldn't it be great, if your children could get along with each other like friends, without conflict or jealousy? If they could build a team and deal with everything together? If you already know, before they are born, that you can do that?
When the family increases, and there is a new sibling in the family, this means changes for all family members. This particularly affects our children. Because they are young, they are possibly about to have the first crisis in their lives as a result of the new arrival.
This book will help you to manage these changes in the best way possible. It will explain what sibling relationships are based on, why siblings quarrel and what you can do about it. How can you avoid the sibling crisis? How does the family constellation change? How do you include your older child, right from the beginning? How do you avoid the classic pitfalls? These questions, and many more, will be explained fully in this book.

About the author
Johanna Burgstein lives with her husband, Stefan, and her two children Ben (6) and Lena (8) in beautiful Rhineland.
Ever since she studied pedagogy (educational science) more than 10 years ago, she has been addressing subjects related to parenting children. In addition to her main work as a family counsellor, she has been writing an increasing number of papers on these subjects, which is taking up more and more of her time.
In her books, she is particularly interested in subjects where she does not only talk about basic knowledge and theoretical findings, but where she can also share her own experiences. These are not solely experiences from her counselling work, but also include many examples of experiences with her own children.
Every one of her publications, therefore, has its essential scientific basis but is also the result of her own knowledge and experience. With this in mind, she is able to create practical guidebooks, containing a wide range of knowledge and useful tips, which are easy to understand and put into practice.
Johanna Burgstein's easy to read work puts the reader into a relaxed and pleasant ambience, while gaining insight into a subject which most people know something about, but where structure and an experienced analysis has not been available.
