[quote=Anonymous]Well I am 35, but I'd like to think pretty much set as a proper adult at 31 when dad remarried ( married, getting ready to have kids etc). Honestly, for me at this point, its about what makes my parents happy. They are youngish (60-62) and I want them to have someone and a good life as they age. My step mom has quirks that I can recognize as not ideal, she's got her own issues (one of her kids has additction problems and she's codependent) but she's so, so great and kind and loving to my kid and to be honest that makes all the rest just not as big a deal to me. My sister, who doesn't have kids, pointed it out to me actually- that it would be easier if she could see her more through the caring grandma lens, because she can see how that sort of takes over the perception. I don't believe in terms like "step grandma" etc. If you care about and love my kid and treat them like a grand kid, you can be grandma, you can't have too many IMO![/quote]
