About 5 years ago, I had a confrontation with my stepsons mother. Being in the room while she was mentally abusing her own children didn't sit well with me. I love these children as if they were mine. I have one child and all of the children have the same father. The mother of the stepsons has always not really liked me, but has always known that I adore her children. And 5 years ago, when I left and divorced my ex husband, she no longer allowed me or my child to see the stepsons. (they are twins) The last time my child saw his brothers was when he was 3. He is now 8 and his siblings are 10. He has often wondered why he is no longer able to see his brothers. I have made countless efforts to try and arrange for them to visit, and every attempt has gone ignored. We live 7 miles apart. I took this matter to the supreme court of Oklahoma and raised an issue that hasn't been raised in the state of Oklahoma involving sibling visitation. Unfortunately, my child and I lost that battle, reason being, my ex husband is not deceased, just out of the picture.I have made many efforts since then (nicely) and nothing. She is being extremely cold hearted towards my child and I am having a hard time "swallowing" that. Any advice would be extremely appreciated. Thank you.

My sons stepmother is horrible. She is really mean to my son. Once my son went into their bed when she wasnt there. He only wanted to cuddle his dad. When she saw him in there, she pulled him out of the bed by his hair and his ear. He was 8yo at the time. She then pushed him down the stairs as the house was 2 story. He didnt tell his dad but he told me. I confronted his dad over this and he didnt believe him. He chose to beleive his new wife over his son. This has happened on many occassions now. I can never forgive her for what she has done.

There is really nothing much you can do about it, to be honest. Maybe try writing her a letter, telling her why they should have a relationship. Maybe you guys can work it out outside the court, the other alternative is to appeal the courts decision.

Well, obviously that woman is a cold-hearted b**** who really needs a dose of reality. Don't ever think that asking that kind of person nicely will ever accomplish anything. Leave the niceness to people who deserve it.
Well, since the laws in your country have failed you (Just like the laws in any other country) You must take this matter into your own hands. You must find someone to be in contact with her sons, should be someone in their age, for example a classmate, or a neighbourhood friend they hang out with in order to convince their mother that they're just playing with that friend. But that friend or schoolmate can bring her sons to yours and the two can meet without her knowing it.. Sounds shady, I know, but that's what she gets for acting the way she did.
