[QUOTE="busywend, post: 122370, member: 391"] Yup, Yup & Yup! Great responses! You will NEVER be her father. You may someday be her father figure - likely when she is much older. I have a step father. He and my sister did not get along. He was always trying to discipline her. She was a difficult child. I was a easy child and we got along OK, but I was sure to never call him Dad. Even though my Dad was a total loser. Today, my sister & I are so thankful that he has been in our lives. As adults we see how he provided for us and made my mom happy. And mostly, how he loved us as his own. But, we did not want that at 13. Dara's difficult child would be very lucky to have a person in her life that she can talk to and bounce things off now and then. Dara makes the child rules and you support her. Never go against Dara in front of difficult child. Speak privately if you feel Dara was wrong. Dara can go back to her difficult child if she agrees she was wrong. It is impressive that you care enough to seek help. I think that is what will make you successful. Seeking advice and help. You will find what works for you. [/QUOTE]
