Firstly, don’t worry about the other children we, will eventually get to how to deal with that aspect. We haven’t really gotten to the crux of the method, it does involve building self esteem. A key factor though is that it not be “artificial”. Your child is REALLY sick, right? and you REALLY want him to get better. By providing him with his needs, no matter what they are, number one, you will be eliminating his need to get what he wants ELSEWHERE, and most of all you will be showing him beyond a shadow of a doubt that his parents (the most important people in his world) love him and accept him; that alone is a HUGE self esteem builder. While it is true this method lets him win all the battles (which he was winning anyway) the idea is that we WIN THE WAR. If you even try win any battles you will almost surely lose the war, and this is one war we cannot afford to lose.
