One of the girls said angrily, "Ever since Mommy gave birth to little brother, she has been carrying him around all the time! She won't even put him down. She used to hug me all the time but now, she ignores me when I talk to her!"
Many of the children in the class had a sibling. After the second child arrived, it would become the more precious one and the older one would be neglected. Most of the children were pampered. However, with a new baby in the family, the elder child would inevitably feel a sense of insecurity.
Children are not adept at managing their own emotions, so they end up complaining.
"Sheng'er, beware! Once your mother has another baby, she will no longer like you!"
Sheng'er was taken aback. When she returned home, she tried to find out by asking her mother whether she would still like her when the new baby arrived, whether she would like the baby, and not her!
