 I have been dealing with a problem with my 3 girls almost since moving here and i am hoping to try and get a few suggestions from the other parents here..........

they have adjusted to living here away from their friends and other family , but i feel that they resent me being with Master DB. i am not sure why i feel this way but i will try and explain the situation:

i was married to their father for 20 years and then he walked out leaving us with nothing .....i met DB online, talked to the girls about moving and we decided together to come here and make a new start.

DB is a very caring Man and tries to show the girls that He cares about them, but He is also very strict when it comes to Respect , Homework and Chores. They never really had alot of structure in the home before , because i was always underminded and they figured that since their father treated me like shit they could too. Now that i am with DB they dont get away with the things that they used to and they get angry when they are told that they have to do things like chores.........

the major porblem i am having with them right now is that their father doesnt give a shit about them ......he makes promises and never keeps them and still after almost 2 years blames me for everything thats wrong in his life...........

i have tried to be honest with the girls about how their father is but i dont know if thats the right or the wrong thing to do ........i dont want them growing up thinking that ALL men are like the sperm donor and i want them to realize in His own way that DB does love and care about them..........

any suggestions or input on this will be greatly appreciated.........

We have talked about this, and all of your kids are old enough to know what a bastard their father is.
I think you are doing the right thing to keep them structured, explain that you will always be there for them , and you cant help what their father does, or dosent do. One day he will have to answer for what he has done to them. I think you have done a great job with allowing the girls to adjust and they are going to be tempermental from time to time, they are, or soon to be teenagers, lol.
Best advice is hang in there!!
