Default Re: Step Parents, unorthodox families, how do you do yours?

Mum and dad split up when I was 17 dad went with a woman 20 years his junior, kicked me out of the family home and moved her and her 2 young kids in, few years later they got wed, mum hates her, she reciprocates really, me and her don't see eye-to-eye, and my dad spends all his hard earned money, has cashed pension plans in early etc, now paying for her daughter through uni (I mean rent, fees, accomodation spends the works!!) whilst I'm lucky to get a £20 argos voucher at xmas!! Mighty fine eh??? Me and his step kids well we don't see each other, we don't go to my dads he comes here once every 2 weeks or so, I love him to bits but he's a silly silly man at times, I feel like his parent!! I have 1 brother who has married into the most complex family ever (even he cannot keep up with who's who) and my grandad, has been with his girlfriend (it amuses me this term, for a man at 76) for many years, she is just J... to me, all his money (which there was once many many thousands of) gets spent on her family haha, the men in my family are suckers basically!!
