Divorce

My brother got divorced two years ago in a very complicated divorce with two children , 6 yrs daughter AND 4 yrs boy. Her mother puts a lot of pressure on her AND tries to harm the relatinship with them.My brother tries to give both of them attention AND more attention to positive behaviour to increase the potivie behaviour AND to reduce mainly his daughters bad behaviour. She likes all his attention to herself AND yesterday when he was playing with the boy AND she wanted him to play just with her, he suggested her to join the game, She was angry AND throw a glass on the wall AND said to him that she will tell mummy he hits her AND they will go to the police. I know these are things she hears from her mom. I suggested my brother at first not to give attention to this remark AND to show her that he understands she is angry AND try to contain her emotions as much as possible. My Q is: do you think he should say something to this kind of remark? as from the past the mom used lies AND went to the police few times to hurt my brother? OR as I suggested to leave AND to say anything just to contain her emothions. Toda
