Re: Step Parents, unorthodox families, how do you do yours?
Well i am 30 and have two step children who are 21 and 17 !!
I myself have three children , two eldest from a prev relationship and baby ( she is 2 !!) from husband .
My parents have stayed married ( even though my dad has had many affairs !!) and will be celebrating their 35th wedding anni in october ( is that coral or something ???anyone???)
My eldest children do not see their father and have only seen him once in the past 5 years-it is all very messy and involves court orders and all sorts !!
Because me and hubby are having a rough time atmo i am finding it difficult with the older two and hubby .He wants to discipline them but i do not feel comfortable with this??? Maybe i got used to doing things my way ??I also feel he has a favourite and am probably a little sensitive to him showing to much affection to one and cold shouldering the other.
My husbands daughter did live with us for a while ( she was 14 at the time-and has no contact with her real mum) she has now moved on and lives in her own place.
It just shows how diverse our family situations can be reading this thread !!!
Very interseting.
