[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow some PPs are harsh. It’s OP’s house too. She takes the kid half the week, every week, and is for all reports (including the stepdaughter) a great (or at least decent) stepmom. There’s no abuse at the other house. How do you know she’s not in her room because she can’t behave appropriately and is in a timeout. OP married into a particular arrangement. She pays and contributes towards her house. She’s under no obligation (moral or otherwise) to take in a teen full time due to some conflict at her other home. And in a few years the child may be demanding to move back when she doesn’t like the rules at OPs house.[/quote] You are wrong. OP married into that arrangement at that time. Kids' needs and best interests change as they get older, and regardless of any abuse, they may change at any time. That is the fundamental part of the deal marrying someone with minor children.[/quote]
