I am a mom of 3 with one child being my husband’s, a step mom of 2 and a wife to my step children’s father going on 23 years now. I was raised by my father that was married 3 different times to women that were abusive in their own ways so coming into my step children’s lives 23 years ago I tried to be that better step mom being fair and equal to all 5 of our kids. I have always loved and treat them as my own but getting nothing in return and repeating this cycle is unacceptable. Paying for family vacations annually and never dividing his mine or ours.
