[quote=Anonymous]It is hard. And not made easier by the fact that their bio mom says nasty things about me. Part of the problem with being a stepmom is that no one wants ANOTHER mother. So you are either this annoying person behaving like a real mom (do your homework, load your plate) or you are neglecting the duties of a real mom and trying to buy popularity (sure, have a brownie for dinner). It's just not easy. I think it's easier for step dads because men in our culture do less of the daily "small" parenting (the dishwasher nagging, etc). I am a big contributor to my family financially and in terms of healthful habits. I hope one day I am appreciated even a tiny bit. Not holding breath. [/quote]
