[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 454646, member: 1514"] Im unsure about what is going on in your situation but I can see how the financial issues can make things difficult. They can in an intact family. Unlike midwestmom, I dont have such an all or nothing thing about step-parents and step-kids and how things should go. In our family, the steps have been integrated by the parents and treated exactly the same as the bio kids. My oldest son is Tony's step-son and he treats him as his own. He always said he wanted 3 boys and the fact that I came with one was just a plus in his book. My oldest granddaugher has a step-father and he treats her the same way he treats his own son. We have no issue with that. Maybe in our situation it is different because the kids were so young. Tony came into my son's life when he was two and I think Lindsay married Jeremiah when Keyana when she was 2. [/QUOTE]
