Don’t say, “Your sibling gets to do that because she’s older”
“Because she is older” is never a good answer to the question, “How come my sister gets to go to bed later/hang out with boys/watch this TV show?” Kids don’t really understand that the age thing isn’t personal—they still take it personally. Answer the question in a manner that focuses on the child asking the question, and not the sibling.
