[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again - I love this board. I thank you all for your feedback and responses. I have been going crazy trying to figure out what this new 'normal' is. I do feel used. I am also expected to do the other things for all the kids - participate in meal planning, laundry, birthday parties, planning. Holidays, vacations etc. I want to do all that - I like being a mom to all 3 kids. It just seems out of balance and I feel like an outsider in making decisions.[/quote] What do you propose - doing laundry for your own kid and not the step kids? If the issue is that you feel "used", take it up with your dh from the perspective of a balance of labor. But don't blame the kids.[/quote]
