New Arrival!

Let me start off by saying: "Finally!"

As a mother of one, soon to be two, and step mother of one; I cant begin to describe how relieved I am to have a place where I can express feelings, emotions and thoughts without sounding like Lady Tremaine. As if trying to parent a child that knows you arent their actual parent isnt hard enough, trying to express its difficulties to others without judgment is even harder. 

I hope to not only gain some insight and helpful solutions, but to also help someone else in any way I can. Pleasantry

Welcome! You are among friends here. Feel free to spill your guts. There is no judgement.

I hope that you find this to be a good place to vent, contribute and to pick up some useful advice who are living the dream of the blended family adventure.

Just take care of yourself and your own children.  Your SO's failed family progeny is not your priority, nor should that failure be your SO's priority.  The two of you and your marriage should be the priority for you both.

Young children trump older children as the top adult responsibility in the relationship. Older children have had their turn at the younger ages. The young onces should not have their turn polluted by a teen who is choosing to be toxic.

Hold your SO accountable to what should be that unequivocal truth.

Good luck.
