toddler jelousey

My soon to be 2yo dd wont let anyone touch or within touching range... she screams, worms her way between us, even smacks them until they are away from me. Shes happy to play alone and be without me.... until she sees someone near me. My poor 11yo ds and husband are the main 2 she targets..... how do I get her to stop being so jelouse???

Just calmly say i love you, but i am doing........... With your dad now, and move her away. She will prob throw a tantrum. But she does have to learn to 'share' you.

adding on to what clare said I dealt with jealously when my youngest boy came along my oldest then wanted my attention I used to distract him when possible and or ask him to be my big helper and get me ...? I also made every effort to do something with him by himself
