[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember what I used to say to myself when I had toddlers. It's a phase. It will pass. Give her time. No pressure, just be nice and don't react to her being cold. Things will get better.[/quote] I agree. She’s being silly and unreasonable, as some adolescents are wont to do. Be very courteous, but there is no need to change your plans.[/quote] It's not silly and unreasonable to dislike, and not want to be around, a divorced parent's new partner. Normal and natural. If you get divorced, you just have to accept "your future partner's kids will resent you" as a cost of doing business. [quote]I think girls are harder than boys in this scenario most of the time.[/quote] Probably girls resent their dad's girlfriend, but boys hate, hate, hate their mom's boyfriend. It is much harder to be a dad dealing with stepsons than to be a mom dealing with stepdaughters.[/quote]
