[quote=Anonymous]If you're a good stepparent (as my husband is) you don't think of it in terms of coming first or second. You understand that you've made a commitment to the children too, and you work very hard to honor that commitment. If you take it seriously, you love your spouse as the parent she is and love those kids as the gift that they are. You don't resent them. That's who my husband is. It's unfortunately not who my daughter's dad's wife is. Far from it. My husband's commitment also includes parenting around that sad fact. How does he do it? He's a grown-ass man. [/quote]
