[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have friends who have been those kids you feel sorry for. Kids are very resourceful. They use the "new" wife and she feels accepted. She buys them all sorts of crap and then they are gone in about 5 years (give or take 2 years). The kids only miss their step siblings - the nice ones. They love their moms for their courage. They understand their dad is kind of a jerk but get that everybody is human. [/quote] Really hate seeing comments like this. I'm a stepmother, and I have stepparents. I really took those people in as my new family members, not pawns. I sent my stepmother Mother's Day cards and got my stepfather Father's Day gifts. I haven't tried to step into the role of being my stepchild's mom, and I leave the parenting decisions up to his parents, and I think we have a good relationship. Not everyone hates their stepkids, and not all stepkids hate their stepparents. I've always been grateful to my stepparents because they made my parents happy, which I could see they were not when they were married to each other. I hope one day my stepchild, when he's old enough to understand relationships, thinks the same thing- his parents are happier apart, and I was not a bad addition to his life, just another person there to love him and help him succeed. [/quote] I also doubt you call your step kids brats and mock their mom for her figure. [/quote]
