[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This sounds like a scene from Cinderella. Are your step-daughters named Drizella and Anastasia? My serious advice would simply be that you have handled it the best that you can. Don't internalize your wife's irrational feelings about the situation. That's actually what she's probably doing here . . . internalizing her daughters' irrational reactions as a criticism of herself. And so she has to "fix" it rather than teaching her daughters to have perspective and resilience. I imagine you see this parenting flaw play out in other less-than-ideal ways as well. And so of course her daughters act like clueless, entitled whiners . . . they know that doing so will have Mommy swoop in to make them feel better.[/quote] 1000% Stick up for your daughter's OP. Not your new wife[/quote]
