You know what is funny? I sometimes forget that my husband is a sp too...I have bd16 and bd15 and they give him a really hard time. I really try to keep on them and tell then that he will treat him with respect but sometimes he makes it hard too...He makes all of the kids do way to many chores... except of course the baby who is my sd9... she is just a baby and she is to young... But when I married him my youngest was 9 and he thought she sould be in there doing chores... It is just hard blending families. It seems skids are an exuse to accuse eachother of picking on kids that are not their own...
