[quote=Anonymous]We brady bunched it and it's going well. My stepkids live with us full time which isn't what I thought we were signing up for, but it's fine. Their mom does not take all her time with them and for a long time we'd tell the kids to plan to be with her, then deal with their feelings when she no-showed. StepDD said to me once "You hate my mom, don't you?" and I had to explain that I hate her action of disappointing StepDD but don't hate her as a person, and feel compassion that she's having a hard time showing up to things. Sometimes my stepkids get upset when my ex shows up for his visitation and occasionally he's taken the stepkids too, when it's just for a dinner or something. DH and I have discussed which of us handles what with which kids and we stick to that. [/quote]
