So I have 3 step kids that live with us. They have not had a good up bringing 2 boys and a girl the oldest 13 and then 12 and the girl is the youngest she is 8. Their mother is on drugs and they have been exposed to that lifestyle way more than they should have. I myself am in recovery from a drug addiction where I lost my kids to their fathers and am trying to get them back. I have been in the step kids lives almost a year. Things were good until they came to live with us.
