Sometimes When I'm Jealous

Children learn practical strategies for coping with jealousy and envy.

Children learn practical strategies for coping with jealousy and envy.

Gentle, supportive, and straightforward, Sometimes When I'm Jealous describes a child's experience with jealousy and the related emotion of envy. "Sometimes when I'm jealous, I do mean things. I don't listen to my teacher when he asks me to share the crayons at my desk. Everything is so unfair!"

Along with the main character, young children learn ways to cope with jealousy, which can be a challenging emotion. "Grandpa says we can feel jealous when our friends spend time away from us. He teaches me that friends don't stop liking us because they're with other people. Grandpa asks if I want to walk to the park to find someone to play with. Or if I want to call a friend and make a playdate for tomorrow."

A special section for adults offers more information on how children of differing ages express jealousy and envy, and how to help children manage these feelings in healthy and empowering ways.
