Fair Isn't Identical

Lena Fairwood

Every family runs into it: one child gets new shoes, another gets a haircut, and suddenly everything is a courtroom. This is the calm case for a different standard: why identical treatment is not the same as fair treatment, how to explain decisions kids can actually accept, and phrases that end the debate without shutting down the relationship. Steady, clear-eyed guidance for the sibling squabbles that seem to have no end.
