[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious, what other things did your stepmom do over the years to create this issue?  My stepkids didn't attend our wedding (it was destination with no kids) but I would hope that this wouldn't scar them.  They only saw DH a couple of times a year at the time.  Now that we have our own child it is a struggle to balance our everyday life and the times that they are with us - things to include them in, things that we can do on our own, etc.  I am constantly looking at the calendar to figure out what dates work for visiting my family or things we can do while we're all together.  Getting invited to events for our toddler during their weekends with us is also a problem as they're 10-11 years older and either aren't invited or wouldn't want to go.  Struggling to include them as it can't always be done.  [/quote]

You do what other families with kids in a wide age range do.  You find ways to make it work.  Split up parenting duties, get a sitter, go to the toddler party for a shorter period of time.  Call your friend and tell them it's a package deal.  Can't be done?  Looks like you have to do something... wait for it.... as a FAMILY that day.

Yes, I get it, it seriously limits your flexibility to do what YOU want to do because you have to find ways to accommodate your step kids.  It is all about YOU Stepmom.  Stepkids aren't invited?   Oh how horrible to have to constantly look at your calendar!!!  Oh, The Struggle!

Stepmom, I have news for you, you suck.  Big time.
