[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stepmoms can’t really freaking win, can they?

If she had let her bio-daughters go on the trip, she’d be excoriated for allowing her bio-kids to have a wonderful experience while her poor forsaken step-kids had to stay at home…

[b]OP — I don’t think there is a right answer to this, it sucks, and is one of the many ways blended families are unfair to almost everyone involved.[/b]

There is a right choice to this: It involves the mom acting like a grown up and not forcing her 12 year old daughter to choose between her half sisters and her grandparents. It’s the parents job to facilitate these relationships NOT put a 12 year old in an impossible position so mom can feel self righteous.

The mom has a hundred excuses for why the stepdaughters’ maternal grandparents are completely right to ignore her daughters. Yet, she wants to crucify her own parents for wanting to go on a trip with their bio grandchildren??? She then admits that the stepdaughters go on trips to visit their maternal grandparents without their half sisters all the time!!!!

Are you for real OP?    [/quote]
