[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - Looks like the stepkids are calling the shots in your marriage. This is one the reasons blended families have high divorce rates - someone is getting screwed, not in a good way. Good luck.[/quote] You are a freakin idiot if you think it is the stepmother getting screwed in this picture. The stepmother is the adult - the kids are the ones dealing with the heavy burden of death of a parent and remarriage. A woman simply cannot enter a family like this and think in terms of mine/yours and "getting screwed" etc. When you marry a widower with kids you have to be prepared to parent, not to be selfish. Obviously you shouldn't martyr yourself and your DH needs to be on board. But it is very different from marrying a divorced man. [/quote]
