[quote=Anonymous]OP, you can't unilaterally ban your stepchild from your home without very seriously alienating them! Obviously! It doesn't matter what other families do. It depends on the context and the nature of the relationship. If you're referring to her mother as "BM" you're clearly in a bad place as a step-parent. You need to come to an agreement with your DH and present a united front to your stepchild. If your DH doesn't want to exclude his child, that's a DH problem. If you don't want to deal with this sort of thing you should not have married a man with children. It's unclear why you can't have a loving adult relationship if your stepchild is ever at your house. You are the adults here. How could a child of any age prevent you from loving your DH? Seems like you have a DH problem and not a stepchild problem.[/quote]
