Question from a new den leader

After my Webelos crossed the bridge in March, I decided to stay on with the
pack as a DL Coach.
A brand new Wolf den leader asked me today about "parental jealousy". The old
"why does Jimmy have more awards than my little Stevie?" type issues.
I suggested that when this occurs to explain to the parent just what Jimmy
did to receive the award in question, point to the appropriate written
resources, smile, and offer to assist little Stevie if needed.
Any other suggestions that you would like to offer? At times jealousy among
the younger age groups can be very difficult to contend with. This den had
a few physical altercations among the children as Tiger cubs over who had
and/or deserved the iron on paws.
You may reply privately, I will print all responses and forward to the
leader. Thanks.
