Consultant's advice is a simple practical...

Do not praise your child for the things that he does successfully for a long time. Mention the things that the child couldn't do but now can. Do not praise for the things that should be a norm. If you admire the fact that your elder son hasn't struck a younger one for the whole day, then both children will feel that this behavior is rather an exception than a rule.
