[quote=Anonymous]OP, I wouldn't be totally put off by the way that your fiance interacts with his daughter. I think you overstepped your bounds in attempting to discipline her, but I think that it's also the truth that if you are considering having children with this man, you will need to have conversations about resolving your different parenting styles. While I am not sympathetic to parents who are not around a lot trying to buy their kids' love and allowing behaviors that would otherwise be prohibited just to keep the peace, I agree that this age is particularly difficult (at least I was particularly difficult at this age) and since he's been parenting her for a lot longer than you've been around, probably you should give him a break about it. That said, you sound pretty threatened by your fiance's relationship with his daughter, and that's a bad dynamic. Why did you accept his proposal if you felt this way?[/quote]
