Today D came out of the girls' room crying hysterically. After she managed to calm down a little, she told me through sobs that she was crying because Adi, N and their friend had "cursed" her.
Specifically, they'd told her that she's "one of the people who lives on the moon" and also "a mushy sweet potato."
I had a talk with Adi and co about being kind and patient with younger siblings, but also pointed out to D that she had provoked them by calling Friend "retarded" and telling her "you have a sweet potato on your head."
So... hopefully everyone learned a valuable lesson? (My lesson - spend a little more time setting up the daily schedule to give A, N and D a break from each other for at least part of the day... ).
