[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry. This must be very difficult for you. FWIW, I'm a stepmom and the kids came into my life when they were about your children's age. We did do some fun stuff together but I was also reallllly careful not to step on their mom's toes. In the long run, I feel like this hurt my long term relationship with them and I regret being so cautious in the beginning. Our relationship now is totally fine but not as close as I wish it was (they're all teens and twenties now) because of how much I held back in the beginning. So, maybe if you look at it as laying a foundation that will be very important for if she sticks around for the long haul it might help a little? I know it's got to be tough though. [/quote]
