Anyone got any good ideas of how to break the news to an 8year old little girl that she is going to be a big sister? Just a bit of background - she is a very emotional, whiny little girl whose mother is not normal (think that's the nicest way of saying that). Worry about what effect the BM is going to have on her response to the news. SD8 is very clingy too, not sure what the best approach would be.
