Being a stepparent is hard It seems that when you have a problem with a child or their parent, people who are not in your shoes, think you are trying to keep children from parents. That is a bunch of crap! Right now, I am only 34 years old. I am shocked at how I do not have gray hair or even loss any of my hair yet. I've became a stepparent in 2016. I went to jail in 2017 just for overnight because of me whipping up on the biological behind her consistantly harrassing me. It was a a hell of a year to know that she has a no contact order on me and was stil trying to cause trouble. The cops did nothing. Fast forward to 2021, I have harden my heart and ending up growing a lot of resentment towards my husband and his kids. His kids are spoiled self entitled little brats and he had allowed before I have arrive years ago. His family had allowed it all because they are trying to keep their last name of "royalty". Right now, I am just ready to pack up and take me and my kids with me somewhere far awar and start over. I even had thoughts of perhaps "the right man" could be waiting for me instead of assuming that my husband is one. So much has happened to the point to wher I am becoming cold hearted. However, I will always have a soft heart for my birth babies. When people tend to use you up and dont care, as soon as you get fed up and flip the script on them, that's when they become victimized at the results that they have brought forth. Please stay encouraged, loves. I am so sorry for what you are going through. Hell, I am so sorry for what I am going through as well. lmbo Sometimes I smile and be okay but right now, I need my punching bag up and ready once again. People don't know how great they have it when someone comes in to their lives to help them with their children that raised to be pieces of crap. I refuse to be at fault for someone else's undoing. 

Thank you so much for letting me vent. You are awesome!!
