[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that you might not like her moving in.  [b]But children always come first.  She comes before you.  Always will.  And I would personally divorce my second husband before he would try to tell me what to do with my children. [/b][/quote]

I am actually surprised you're only on your second husband.[/quote]

You should be - since I'm still on husband #1. [/quote]

Consider me shocked then. I know several couples with the "children" always first mentality. Funny how they're either miserable or divorced and the kids are brats.[/quote]

When kids are minors, they needs should always come first.  This is a 22 year old adult who didn't have much of a relationship with Dad and is using him as she doesn't like mom's rules (which are probably too little too late).[/quote]

Of course the needs of minors have to be met. But the word "needs" gets abused these days. Parents often confuse "wants" with "needs" and parent with the desire to "appear" to be awesome parents by overindulgence.[/quote]
