Dear Queenie,
My sister has two kids, a son and a daughter. The boy is adorable, but I just don’t like the girl. I know it’s not fair and I don’t want to play favorites, but I just don’t like her.
Queenie, how can I get over this?—Worried auntie
Dear Auntie,
Sit down and make a list of at least 10 things about this girl that you at least approve of. Do not let yourself say anything negative about her and force yourself, if you must, to say nice things about and to her.
If the problem is your attitude, you will find yourself changing little by little. If the problem is the way she reacts to your attitude, she will reflect your change in behaviour.
