My 3 year old son, goes to his real dads house on thursday evening and omes bak saturday night. When he Comes home it takes him a day or two to become the same hild that left. Every weekend this happens. Now that he is getting older he has suh a attitude with his step dad. He makes faces at him, Always tells him he is gonna tell mommy, that mught not have anything to do with it but anyways. I don't know what to do. Is it going to get worse or better. He all his step dad daddy beause he has been in his life sine he was 9 months old but whats going to happen when he realizes that not all kids have two dads. Does it depend what his real dad is telling him. Does anyone else have this problem. Please let me know i don't want to have this strain in our family and i would like to ath it before he gets older.

hello Thernandez816, i am actually a product of a broken family... In my point of view its not a problem if his step dad love him and treat him like a his own true child.. child is a child always give him the he wants but not to the point that you give him all that would make him spoiled. How going to a park, swimming in a beach.. family bonding is very important.. and don't worry and think positive that when the child grows enough and enough to understand the situation then. he will really understand like me my parents separated when i was 6 years old at those times i don't really understand but as time goes by i understand why they do it and why those things happened.. His real dad can't poison the mind of your child maybe today at his age but sooner or later the child would understand on its own even without explanation why he has to dads or anything.. just show him your love and his step dads love..

Does his step dad try to be friends with your child? Do you go out as a family, does he take your son to parks on his own? Is your partner trying his utmost to better his relationship with your son? How is your relationship with his real dad? Can you work out together to iron out this problem?
