[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry this is mostly a vent.  I'm 35 and my parents divorced at age two and both remarried other divorcees with kids by the time I was 10 so I've been doing the step family dance literally my entire life and even now with a family of my own it just sucks.  [b]No one ever really truly gets along sincerely.  We don't really all want to be together and don't have natural bonds. [/b] I realize that if you've never experienced this you might not believe it but it's true and I've had lots of other adult kids of divorce agree.  If there is any way possible to not get divorced or at least not remarried for your kids sake.  Please try.  And if you absolutely must do not assume you are the Brady Bunch and your kids want to have relationships with each other or your new spouse.  No matter how much time passes.  I'm so tired of this defining my family and every freaking holiday.[/quote]

You could say the same thing about myself and my siblings.  Only non of us are step or half or anything other than full siblings.  This is just the family dynamic for some families.[/quote]
