[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get a tear but it isn't because it is so wonderful but because it is so biased and I'm disappointed in Publix. Society has somehow embraced the whole idea of marketing stepfathers as being wonderful, silent, long-suffering "heroes" who are suddenly, magically loved so much by the kids they get the honor of walking their stepdaughter down the wedding aisle or other happy-ending scenarios. Now, point one single commercial, ad, ANYTHING that portrays a stepmother in the same light. OK, I'm waiting,.. [/quote] The dad is a widower and not divorced, but isn't the entire plot of the Sound of Music basically about a loving stepmom who comes into the kids' lives?[/quote] The movie is fiction. The real life story was a soon-to-be-nun marries a man for convenience in the 1920s, because she thought it was "God's calling" for her to raise the children. That is a far cry from the average modern day stepparent situation. [/quote]
