Decide what works for you, and tell him to figure out the same.[/quote]

SP. Also, he now has a child at home full time. Everything about your child care sharing situation is changing.

His wife was previously "only" a step-mother, so it made sense that she should not have to worry her head about child care. Now, however, I am sure she is THRILLED to have built-in child care she hasn't had to do any work or spend any extra money to procure (I sure will be). It will almost definitely put a strain on their marriage if you end this very affordable arrangement that you have with your husband. There will be fiscal impacts on both households, and he may choose a child care arrangement you dislike. It is also possible that it will reveal the extent to which step-mom is or is not interested in being an active parent figure to your children vs. her own.

But, regardless, the situation has changed, and it is still time to end it and just let it not be your problem.[/quote]
