[quote=Anonymous]PP here. This is the kind of binary thinking that dismisses the lifelong complexity of blended families. No, kids are not the decision makers about adult behavior. They are also not unaffected bystanders. There are not two choices: have a multi-layered blended family and assume everyone thinks it's A-ok, or live alone forever. The fact that you're dumbing it down to these two options makes it likely that while you're an adult COD, you have no idea what the lifelong implications of blended families are, with all the forthcoming holidays, grandkids, inheritance issues, medical care, end of life decisions, and on, and on. I didn't attack OP. I asked her to stop and consider her SD as a individual who, while she has no say in what's happening now, has and will have important feelings later that will impact the family. This isn't inviting a kid into the marital bed. It's recognizing that there are family ties that should be respected. [/quote]
