The Other Parent
Jaimie on Jul 7th 2008
No, not Matt. I’m talking about CJ.
He thinks he is the boss of Alexa. And not just in an older brother kind of way - he acts like he is her parent. Which I do understand is perfectly normal, and how big siblings act (I know I used to do it to my little brothers) but oh my goodness it is annoying.
However, he doesn’t limit it to just Alexa. He bosses around kids at the park, the zoo, and the playground just the same. If they break a rule he has - he tells them off and tells them to stop. He’s my little rule junkie. Always enforcing them on others.
Which does not explain why he’s so lax about following them himself when he pleases…

I was the bossiest child and I still struggle with bossing people around as an adult - one good outlet for me was to become a teacher! No, I’m not a mean teacher, but I do have great behavior management skills. Maybe your son is just born to be a leader of some sort!
