[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here with an update. My stepdaughter told me she doesn't want her mom there because she's quiet and usually doesn't blend in with new people. [b]She also said, and I really think this is the real reason, her mom is single and lives in a condo while I'm married and live in a "big" house like her friend's mothers[/b]. I really don't know how to handle this.[/quote]

That doesn't sound very nice on your SD's part. I understand that she's at an age where these things matter, but I think it's up to you to show her how to do the right thing.
It's mother's day. She birthed her, and presumably raised her - it's an occasion to honor her, not exclude her. [/quote]
It's not very nice but that is the SD preference and her preference should be respected. She has every right to prefer her SM and the SM has every right to say yes to this even. The SM's thoughtfulness says to me that you are a really nice person and maybe there's a reason why DH is with you now:)   How about raising the issue with the DD that her mom's feelings might be hurt and how does she feel about that?[/quote]
