I am adopting the 4 yr. old in a sibling group (mixed bio fathers) of 7,4,2, and 1 yr. old. They were all together for a bit but that tanked due to behaviors from the older three. The younger two are together, and all four are within the same county (about a 25 minute drive). I'm looking for ideas of things to do in addition to play-visits (which I think may be hard to maintain over time with the younger two, and probably won't happen with all four together due to behaviors) to help J (4) maintain whatever we can of the positive side of the sib relationship. We go watch his older brother play ball, we are starting at the same church as the younger two... When he outgrows things I encourage him to set them aside for either his younger bro. or my younger nephew and he seems to enjoy this. I plan to send pics a few times a year, write letters or send little packages once in a while to the 2 and 7 yr. olds... Any and all other ideas are welcome. jan
my son is 9 and he has 5 brothers and one sister we only get to see two of his brothers but they are about 2 hours away we get to gether just to hang out they come watch mine play ball we do holidays we even bought xmas for all his brothers and sister last year cause thats what he wanted to do..we send pics all the time .one brother we never met but we still send cards and pics i will say its getting less and less time with them just because he is getting older and he is so busy with his sports we made a photo book (2) with pics of just his first family and as they have all grown
