Our new baby arrived finally, and he is fantastic. Im so happy and thankful that I am trying to not stress mye4elf out about the skids. Typically at the end of every week I start to get emotional and really stressed, knowing that in a few hours the skids will be here, destroying our home, manipulating my H and terrorising my children. So I get real grouchy and on the verge of tears. With my new child I want to turn over a new leaf, good karma and so forth. How do I do this when I despise one of my skids. I have tried to be nice and caring but this child is honestly not human. Even the my in-laws say so. Its like you have to check the childs head for 666 because I know its there somewhere. When H family tells me to never leave baby in the same room with skid, for fear skid will harm baby, there is a problem.
So my question is for all you stepmonsters out there what can i do to make weekends easier on me?

by his family how they view his child? Maybe if he were confronted, an intervention so to speak, with how his child is he would have to step up and take more on while the kid is there. This is a very tough one for me, as i am currently trying to get pregnant, and dh and i have already had talks because of the brain washing my mil and bm are doing to ss4. If ss does anything to harm me or the baby.....he will be living at bs's full time!

he just does not want to hear it. Denial, and espically with this skid, the other one he kinda ignores. I think he knows that the bad skid is actually very troubled and does not want to admit it. And trust me, if bad skid does anything to the baby, its the end. Skid will NEVER be allowed in my house again. Good luck tryin, thats half the fun !

Avoidance works best for me. I don't have a new baby but find that just removing myself from the environment helps. I know this isn't easy with a small child but maybe having time away would help.
