I didn't mention my father because he's not really relevant. I have a close and loving relationship with him and have my entire life. He's a critical part of my life. But he hasn't died and he never obstructed my relationship with my stepfather so it wasn't relevant.

Yes I would encourage that. It would be difficult and I am positive I would be consumed by jealousy and difficult emotions at time. In order to create a world where she could grow to love them as much as I do I would try to facilitate that. Because that is what would be best for my kids. When I had them I committed to making decisions about what was best for them more important than decisions about what is best for me.[/quote]

I do not believe you when you say you would willingly cede equal decision-making power in your kids' life to another woman. Sorry.  You're lying.

And I don't believe it is best for the kids to have a case of magically multiplying "parents". Kids need clarity and structure. Mom.  Dad.  The rest of the world. That doesn't preclude amicable relationships with other adults. But parents stand apart. [/quote]

Not always.

When the bio parent is selfish/unhinged/miserable, etc. chances are the kids will happily attach to the step-parent. [/quote]
