[quote=Anonymous]If you're just going by social media, you can't learn much. Teens and young adults have zero interest in appearing on their father's new wife's social media! They may refuse to do it at all, even if the new wife wants them to. So I wouldn't draw any conclusions from it. But I do see this erasing happen when the second wife wants to pretend there never was a first wife, that her kids are the only kids, that her DH is having a first-time parenting experience even though he actually isn't, etc. On some level she knows she settled, and as her DH visibly ages, she tries harder and harder with social media and their family "brand". And the older set of kids just kind of drifts away, because the new wife and the marriage cannot succeed if they are often present. https://drpsychmom1.substack.com/p/redo-vs-second-act-vision-of-remarriage[/quote]
