[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 712543, member: 1550"] I understand. I think it is hard to be a step. It took my kids forever to accept my husband. Remember kids love their parents no matter how lacking they are or you think they are. Parental love from kids takes a long time to earn. Sometimes it doesn't ever come for reasons out of your control. My son is divorced. When mother moved he moved to be near his son. He bought a house there. Your husband did not have to be do far and he could have fought for more time. My son demanded 50/50 in court. I am not meaning to criticizing hub, but his kids don't know him do well. It will take time to build a relationship for both of you. Mom raised them. Of course she has a the major influence. Lay back and relax. Don't try to get do involved. Wait until/unless ss is ready to embrace you. This is not something you can force. You can not replace Mom even if you are terrific. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
