If you are taking in two 13 year old girls from a troubled family that just lost their mother and moving them into a suburban oasis this is not going to be a walk in the park. There are a lot of emotional issues here you wil need to deal with, including getting them therapy.

Seriously, don't abandon these girls but don't sugarcoat motherhood. If you are not a troll you are skipping through life on a very superficial level.

+1 OP's only focus seems to be on fun, fun, fun. Very glib and shallow.

It didn't come up as glib and shallow to me. I thought OP was mentioning the good aspects out of raising a teen so as to list the pros as well as the cons in her decision making process.
