I am new to this site and am relieved to know I am not alone. but makes me think.....are we too hard on the situation? I am thinking no, because I spend more time feeling angry and depressed and I never used to be. I read about all the 4 year olds and 7 year olds. My SD is now 11, I met her when she just turned 8. Even neighbors tried to warn me that what this little girl wants, she gets. I never even said anything remotely negative either. I guess they just saw how she ran to daddy to fix everything. He'd run down the street to protect her from name calling when she is the bully.
