stepchildren

Spend time with your stepchildren. You don't need to overdo it with gifts or fancy trips. Even so, by enjoying family time together, doing activities such as sports or other games can help your steppe feel comfortable, and think of you as a friend, not an enemy.

I think it's gonna take some time for them, too. Be nice to them and maybe one day they'll hate you no more. But if theu were to destroy your relationship, it would be very troublesome. How old is them?

Would I let a stepchild destroy a relationship no. Relationship between child are hard in general. It really comes down to why do you not get alone why, does that child not like you. It’s hard to saw what I’d do when I’m not in it. What if’s are terrible and I don’t like playing them.

I can imagine this being a very difficult situation. The best thing would be to tell your partner about the problems you are having because he is the link between you and the stepchildren. Perhaps they are still traumatised about their parents breaking up.

To be honest if I had kids and they didnt like a new partner I had I would probably break it off I wont let my children be miserable.

You can have asummer holidays with them,care and cook for them, attend important ocassions at school, try to show them that you love them

I think it is best to talk with them heart-to-heart, Welcome to myLot...

I have step mother since I was 8 years old. At first I hate her. I dont want have new mom (even I dont have mom anymore since 3years old) but my step mom really nice woman I ever met. She cares my education, my meals, even she working hard for my needs. Everything. Now she is like my real mom. I am already 31 years old. I love her much. it takes two to tango. both of us need working out for better relationship. I hope you have good relationship in the future with your step children.

I have a co teacher she has step children and they spend time together and they are very close. I guess it's up to you on how you will handle the situation and how will you impose respect in your family. And ofcourse your partner has to do something for you and your step children. Talk to them as a mom and be a friend for them and as time goes by they will realize that you treat them as if they were your own.

You cannot force people to like you, and it really depends on the circumstances. For example, my step mother did some horrible things. She will never be loved, and this was 34 years ago. If I had to take care of her ashes I would flush them down the toilet.
