The birth of a sibling

The birth of a sibling is emotionally similar to economic ruin.

Think of someone who lost half of their property.

The emotional blow is so hard that subjectively thinks he has lost everything. Never happened. Is devastated, distraught. Desperate.

But those around him, not only did not realize his misfortune, but also are very happy and many people come to congratulate him, with shouts of joy exaggerated, "Congratulations!Now you'll be fine! ".

The confusion could not be higher: if in times of great misfortune all rejoice, then it stands alone because congratulate those who are happy with their pain: they are his enemies.

But despite the realization that they are his enemies can not leave, flee, because their poverty has nowhere to go!

But continue helping him, feed him, shelter him, do not expel ... and no one comforts her sharp impoverishment but seems to cheer, his misfortune causes them happiness.What to do!

He has no idea just makes clumsy attempts to require that you return the wealth they stole, but others seem angry, they get cranky with the claims.

He has lost his property but has also been shown that all rejoice in his misfortune and the most savage robbery is not a crime, those who seemed allies, support the thief and, if this were not enough, you love who require deprived him of almost everything.

Something so are the feelings that a child feels when a brother is born. Adults who suffered have been lucky enough to forget and therefore do not understand the suffering of their children when they "gave him a little brother to have to play with."
