Relationships: Overcoming sibling rivalry and peer conflict

Do your children compete or fight with each other, with their cousins, peers or friends? Does it break your heart or even make you mad? With the right support, sibling and peer rivalry provides your children with the opportunity to learn peaceful conflict resolution skills and to build loving relationships with family members and peers! In this webinar, you’ll learn strategies to reduce sibling rivalry in your home and how to provide your children with life skills so they can get along with family, friends and peers. 

Join Dr Rosina McAlpine, parenting expert and creator of the Win Win Parenting program as she explores:

• Why sibling and peer relationships are so important.
• Research on siblings and peers.
• Planning ahead for a new baby sibling to ease the transition.
• Major changes when the baby arrives.
• Combative and competitive relationships between siblings and peers.
• Practical strategies for overcoming sibling and peer rivalry.
• Question and answer session. 

This webinar is designed for parents of children aged toddler to teenager. By attending this session, parents and carers will have a better understanding of sibling rivalry and peer conflict and ways to support their children to collaborate rather than compete and manage conflict more peacefully. 

Relationships: Overcoming sibling rivalry and peer conflict will be held at 1pm on Thursday 17 August 2023.
