Staying For the Bio to watch for Abuse, not staying just because of a bio

I posted a blog yesterday asking if there are any steps out there who stay in the marriage for fear that their bio might be abused by half siblings. Some thought I meant staying in a marriage just because there is a bio child.

My issue isn't that I want to stay married because of our child.... I'm not a fool to think that it is healthy to stay in a marriage just because of a child. I was asking something different....

Anyone else stay for the sake of their Bio Child…

It’s been awhile since I have posted. A lot has happened over the last months and things haven’t gotten any better. My DH and I are on the verge of a divorce. I am at the point where I feel that if he left, I know I would be happier, because the skids wouldn’t be around me anymore.

Trying to "like" the Skids

I am working on "liking" my skids more. They are my child's half brother's and also are not going anywhere since they live with us full time. I have come to realize that I do love them, because they are after all just kids. However, I do not like their behavior. I have vented, cried, complained about how much I do not like them. At times I have even posted that I "HATE" them. They have left for the summer to go stay with their mother (we have them full time). They have been gone only 2 days and I now realize that I do not HATE them. I can not stand their behavior.
