Types of jealousy in children

the child is hungry. This may upset

3. Clinging to the mother no matter how often she tries to push
him away, especially when he feels that she wants to feed the
new baby.
4. Using criticism and insults directed at anyone who opposes
him.

a reward to encourage them, making sure that the

other.
