Cartoon: Feeling see-through

Grace Stiefel, Staff Writer • April 25, 2024
Glass child syndrome is a term used to describe children whose siblings require more attention due to medical needs, physical or mental disabilities, or other situations that require extra care. Glass children often feel neglected by their parents and may feel invisible or see-through due to the lack of attention they receive compared to their sibling. Though it’s challenging to prevent neglect completely, reducing the severity is possible. Parents setting aside just 15 minutes for each child benefits their relationship and can limit these feelings of invisibility. Taking this small step allows a child to grow up without feeling like their family life revolves around their sibling. (Grace Stiefel)
