Welcome! I'm sorry to hear you're going through this. This type of behavior coming from a 10? year old is completely unacceptable. It is completely unacceptable behavior from any child!! Have you talked to your boyfriend about this? Does he know how his child is behaving? This behavior is not OKAY. Does he discipline her for her actions? Does the girl get to see her mother? Moving a new step mom into the home after only a few months would be rough. It must be really hard on the child, but does not excuse her behavior.

Something I have learned to live by: You don't have to love me or like me, but you will be civil and respectful. I would not tolerate this behavior! You and your boyfriend need to have some serious discussions about behavior and expectations and maybe even getting her into some type of counseling.

When does falling in love mean moving in with each other? So how long did this little girl have to get used to you being around? 2 months? Now she hates you because you ruined her perfect world of Daddy and Me. She didn't have enough time to get used to you being in her life.

If your BF doesn't reprimand her or discipline her in anyway can you imagine how lax he was with her before he met you?

I don't see things changing anytime soon. When your BF decided to move you in after 2 months he should have let his daughter move in with her mother. This way he could have you all to himself... because neither of you considered how his daughter would feel did you?

Kids aren't little toys you can wind up and expect them to be little angels and accept anything their parents do as 'for the best'/ That being said she should not be allowed to hit you. Tell her father this has gone on too long and as he hasn't made an effort to make it stop then you are moving back ... 17 hrs away
