[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please please please stick to your guns on this one. A Christmas tree is an overtly Christian symbol and it will only confuse your little ones, who already face enough pressure to assimilate. Your stepdaughter needs to respect your rules in [b]your[/b] home. If she wants to celebrate Christmas, she can do it elsewhere. [/quote] Confused about who is the owner of the home. Does the OP solely own the house? If the mom and dad do not jointly own the house, then I guess it makes sense that the mom can make the decision solely on her own. If they are married and joint owners of the home, then it makes more sense for them to honor the beliefs and cultures of all who belong to the family. The stepdaughter is part of this family, just as much as the younger children are. The most successful combined families I know treat all the children equally and are careful not to draw distinctions between "my" children and the stepchildren. [/quote]
