Do I have this thing figured out yet?

If I were the author of a book on stepparenting:

 

I think chapter one would be called:  Let Your Own Dad Do it

I think chapter two would be called: Go Ask Your Own Dad

I think chapter three would be called: I'm Going To Focus On My Own Kids

I think chapter four would be called: No More Disciplining Someone Else's Kids

I think chapter five would be called: Maybe I Finally Have This Thing Figured Out

 

change is in the air

New here. Went to the computer tonight to find a site like this and thank god here I am.  Today I decided I am "over it".  I am a SM to two SS (11, and 14) and I have two sons of my own (11 and 15).  I am a 25 year teacher so I know a thing or two (or a million!) about raising kids.  Problem is that my partner is not competent in his parenting  and I think I was blinded by love.  I have worked tirelessly to promote consistency and boundaries backed up with love and positive reinforcement.  I get it.  I get my place.
