Eldest changing as they reach preteen

My eldest daughter is gentle but the two younger ones are very different. She has been screaming a lot nowadays. She's 11. I have to tell her to stop screaming. She can't tolerate the other two and she doesn't know how to handle them.


Some kids, especially boys (not my daughter) are into sarcasm at this age. If that's yours, perhaps pay attention to the shows and books he has been into and their tone. 


And if he says something hurtful, do get back to him on that and let him know it hurts and tell him not to say things like that to other people because of how hurtful it can be. Communication is key. And openness -- if you can be open to him, he can be open to you 


Also, if it's not the books or vids he has been into, perhaps the friends.. I homeschool my kids so I can be more aware of their influences..
