[quote=Anonymous]Temp. Solution. He spends time lying down in her bed until asleep, then slowly just reading etc. (We did it with preschoolers). Longer term solution: hold off on marriage until you better understand the family dynamic and see if you are ok with it. You can participate but you mostly have to accept and if you're not ok with it then you need to move on. Fwiw years ago I posted something similar, but it was part of a pattern of infantilization on DHs part that was not healthy and stemmed from guilt and anxiety. I was abke to work through some of it but being a stepparent is a long and complicated path that does not end when kids are 18. You have to be willing to be responsible without having much of a say.
