We have long recognized that siblings represent children’s first playmates and friends. However, the impact of our relationships with our siblings is often overlooked in favour of parent-child relationships, peer relationships, and friendships. Although parents, peers, and friends each play critical roles in young peoples’ lives, the sibling relationship represents one of the more enduring and affective intense bonds for children and teens. A particular issue that occurs most commonly between siblings is that of conflict.

In this webinar, we will discuss:

1. what sibling conflict looks like during childhood and adolescence,

2. how aggression is often conflated with conflict between siblings, and

3. how to recognize, become involved, and support young people’s conflict resolution skills, which will support their social development and overall mental health.
