From the perspective of one of a 'bio mom' AND a 'step mom':

The blog posted by Janice/BIOMOM along with the comments that followed were both intriguing and thought provoking.
I have read all of your great points, and have to start by echoing what was said by Nymh...
This is where we come to vent.
And it has been very helpful and theraputic for me; this web site reflects a very narrow portion of who we are and what we feel (and even how we 'relate' to/interact with the ex's).
It's really not as much about 'bio mom's' as it is 'ex's' coming from their worst place: jealousy, rage, and revenge...

UGH, I'M SO FRICKIN' FED UP WITH 'PSYCHO BIO MOM'

I'm so irritated! Primarily w/'psycho bio mom' but also my husband!
Long story short: she decided 'the kids were staying with [her] for [his] Thanksgiving visit;
For the first time in over 10 years: no response. We didn't fight!
(Please understand he has fought for YEARS for his/the children's rights, both in and out of court with temporary resoulutions but never any lasting closure/results)

I'm kind of scared to 'open [this] can of worms'...

Okay, *deep breath* here goes: My husband and I have been married a little over 7 years. He and I each had a boy and a girl when we got married (my daughter was 9, and my son was 6, his son was 5 and his daughter was 3).
My children were very angry and resentful of my new husband from the start. He is a very kind, loving man, and they were angry, mean and abusive after the first year, for about 3-4 years. He did not come in and 'try to be the dad' I've required that they be respectful to him, because "he is my husband, period."
And it's been a constant battle.
