You wanted her here, you brought her here, you take care of her.

You asked me the first time and I gave you a mean side eye with a stone face. The next morning you tell me SD10 is staying here with me while you go to work because it's easier for you. NO sir, you are getting her dressed and taking her with you. I don't care if it's too damn early in the morning for lil Princess. Next time make her go to bed at a decent time instead of playing on her cracked IPAD all night. Disney Dad. SD10 is your responsibility, you are not unloading that burden on me because its easier for you. Oh, you have an attitude?

DH actually is being an on time parent to the feral child

The Christmas Holiday has been one pleasant surprise after another. SD10 has been here since December 22 and I will be the first to admit the girl has been less emotional. The few times she tried to get crazy DH nipped it in the bud so quickly my jaw dropped in shock. BioD11 and Sd10 are cordial to one another and that is terrific. Everyone has done their part in making Christmas peaceful. Also when it's necessary that I disengage I go in our bedroom pour a glass of wine and watch Patrice O'Neal's Elephant in the room and laugh until it hurts.

Please God let my Christmas not be ruined.

SD10 will be here for Winter break. DH promises SD10 will not behave as horribly as she did the past two years she has visited. DH says she's older and is more mature now and if she does display a negative attitude he will step in and nip it in the bud. We will see about that. I for warned our BioD11 to be cordial but on guard and if SD10 tries to get physical like she has in the past BioD11 has my permission to punch her right in her nose and that will be it.

I was called petty and unreasonable

Where do I begin? Okay, my bf/fiancé and I rekindled our relationship three years ago. We broke up 10 years ago when we got pregnant. In between that time he met someone else and of course popped her up with a baby too. Their relationship ended in 2006. Our bd is 11yrs old, his is daughter 10yrs old. The first year we began living together his daughter stayed with us for the summer and it was a disaster. Here are some of the highlights. Anytime bf would hug me or kiss me she would literally run up to us screaming CAN I HAVE A HUG?! This was on a constant basis.
