When more than one child resides in a home, sibling rivalry is bound to exist to some degree. The severity of the situation depends largely by how parents react to the conflict and their treatment of each child in the family. All children are different, just as all adults are different. Parents may strive to love each child equally, but because children are so different the love shown is different as well. If the tension caused by sibling rivalry escalates, parents become stressed and may blame or resent each other for showing favoritism or not doing enough to resolve the issue.
Preferential Treatment
Children compete for their parents’ attention, regardless of whether favoritism is shown to one child or not. When a parent does show preference to one child, the other parent may experience frustration or anger because of the conflict that ensues. Differing parenting styles create a rift between two parents if one favors a particular child. Communication between parents may disintegrate, and if the situation is not addressed or improved the relationship will suffer.
