[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I’m a mother and a stepmother (my stepkids are also much older than my kid like OP) - I would have been surprised if my DH hadn’t told me beforehand. Not asking for permission but a “hey this is what’s up. All the kids are on board with the plan” -OP - this took a while for me to realize, my DH knows my stepkids way better than I do. (I know this sounds like duhhhh but I had a lightbulb moment). He knows their temperament and skills much more acutely than I do. So he clearly thought his daughter could handle your son for a short time while he took care of the other children. I can see why you initially were upset, it takes me a minute to go with the flow of changes too. I don’t know if you’re still reading this thread but maybe now is a good time to think about the sibling relationships. These have the potential of being lifelong supportive relationships and it may be worth your while to help nurture them. [/quote]
