[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the step dad has been supporting his wife and step kids since step kids were little and step kids benefited by having a mom who stayed home with them. Kids were way better off than being raised by poor single mom. What did mom do with child support payments from bio dad? Were there any? Stepdad has done plenty. [/quote] I think it's pretty callous to say, "Well, I worked so you could stay home with them, but that's all I'm going to do to support them." Was that discussed before mom decided to stay home? Because I promise you, if the arrangement of "You can stay home with them, but when they get to college, they're on their own" was presented to me, not only would I not be quitting my job to stay home, I would also happily be a "poor single mom" rather than a person married to someone who did not treat my children as though they were his own.
