[Killswitch]

Anyone have them?

[sanjuaneros]

Si'

 

[freakygirl]

Why?

You want some more? Yes, I have 4...A 14 year old girl.. 13 year old boy and twin 10 year old boys (package deal.. no exceptions).

Take your pick.. I'll pay shipping

 

[Killswitch]

ahhhh I was just wondering. Do you like having stepchildren FG?

 

[Killswitch]

And no I dont want more.

 

[fgarvb1]

Please God, never again!

 

[freakygirl]

Honestly?

No, I don't. But I think it's the kids.. I don't think I would like them if they were mine even.

Spoiled rotten-allowed to do as they please-brats. They aren't being raised by a grown up.. they are being raised on the streets by their peers.

Someday Mr Freakys ex will figure it out.. hopefully it won't be to late.

The state says she is doing a good job raising them. They have a roof over their heads, clothing on their backs and food in their stomachs. I guess all that makes you a good parent.. regardless of where they children get those things.

Can you tell this is a sore subject with me?

 

[Killswitch]

Its a sore subject with both of us.

I have four stepchildren.
21, 19, 14 and 11.
The oldest two have lived with us for extended times.
(Including the oldest girl with her baby)
The third youngest lived with us for a short time
but things didn't work out. Sadly.
My oldest stepson lived with us from 14 to 18.

Yes, I love being a stepmum. (And a step granny lol)
It has definitely had it's challenges
and rewards.
I also have two kids of my own; 14 and 9.

Hey.. I happen to love my ex husbands step son and his youngest son (*J* jr is a neat kid.. I'd trade all of Mr Freakys kids for my ex husbands kids)

 

[ranajja]

Got 'em

Rule #1

Whether they're yours biologically or environmentally, you cannot please a teenager. Do not attempt to try.

Rule #2

No matter how bad my problems are, I'm not trading mine with anyone else's.

Rule #3

Love in spite of, not because of.

Ours is a "his and ours" household. "His" are all teenagers, and they live with us.

There are days I'm so proud of them I could burst. Some days they are just soooo easy to love.

Then there are days I could just pinch their little heads right off.

I must say, our days are never boring. Or quiet.

 

[Killswitch]

Well....thanks for the responses.

I was engaged to a wonderful man who had two children...

Although the engagement didn't work out, I still consider his children somewhat of my own...and we talk on a regular basis. His son is now 20, his daughter is 15.

They are the coolest kids. I wish they were mine.

They still call me "Mom".

[Debbie]

Well....thanks for the responses.

How old are your stepkids?

 

[Killswitch]

12, 15, and 17.

If I finally marry the man in my life I will be a stepmom... but I try not to think about it.

I won't be a step mom to them, and don't want to be - the eldest is only 3 yrs younger then me and the youngest is only 6yrs younger... I just want them to see me as a friend!

It is kinda scary though at times....

 

[BlueDaisy]

Don't have any step-kids, but I am one myself.

 

[Killswitch]

Who was the step parent blue? And at what age did you become a stepchild.

I had a step mom like that. She wanted to be my friend. It didn't work out. She was really cool and everything. it's just that when she tried to display authority of any kind over me I wasn't having any of it.

Be a mom first and a friend second. It's what is needed most.

I hate the word Step Mum or Step dad

I know it just terminology - but dont like it.

In my situation my girlfriend lives with me and my kids live withn their Mum.

When the kids are with me - my s/o is not another Mum - she is my girlfriend - and a friend to the kids. Thats all - even if we got hitched she would just become a better friend

I am and always will be the only Dad my kids have. I certainly dont want them calling anyone else Dad and I know they wont.

 

[Killswitch]

Did your father support your stepmother purde? Did he back her up when some authority was necessary?

 

[Cuckolded_BlK_Male]

Anyone have them?

I Don't have any.
Don't believe in them.

My father was out of town quit a lot on buisness but when he was home he supported her on most of the decisions she made. However I was the only female child in his side of the family for like 4 generations and I was quite spoiled. I didn't live with my father for very long though. I kinda jumped inbetween parents a lot. Neither of them were ever really home. I was used to doing what I wanted and when I wanted to.

 

[Killswitch]

Ok, thanks Purde.
