I know there are a few members on this board who loathe me and probably can't wait to get in on the comment section and rip me to shreds, but I'll just take a risk and put this question out there anyway: how many of you find yourselves wishing tha t your stepkids were never born? Obviously, this isn't something that one can tell their spouse (or anyone else, for that matter)...Okay, go ahead, rip me to shreds now and tell me how "evil" you think I am. I'm ready...But, remember, this is supposed to be a place where stepparents come to VENT (and that is a loaded term)...
I'm very very lucky and have
I'm very very lucky and have great skids. In all fairness, I came into their lives when the were almost adults. There have been a few problems but nothing as bad as most of what I've read on here.
It's BM that I wish never existed or more that DH hadn't ever married her. I know that means that the skids wouldn't be here if that had happened but I guess I'm saying it's her I have a problem with, not the skids.
My DH said that too. I said
My DH said that too. I said but then you wouldn't have your kids. He replied that he wouldn't know the difference. He'd have a whole new reality.
The odd thing is that we grew up near each other. I should have gone to the same HS that he and BM went to (they were HS sweethearts), we know a lot of the same people but we didn't meet until we were 40.
I tease him that in an alternate universe, we met, married, had kids and got divorced. Then he went to a reunion and met BM, they got together and I'm the crazy ex. LOL.
Nay, I only have one step. He
Nay, I only have one step. He was a good kid. He's a decent adult now (most of the time).
I adopted my Skid when he
I adopted my Skid when he asked me to when he was 22. So, no, I do not wish he had never been born. I wish his useless POS Sperm Idiot had never been born, in fact with the exception of my son I wish the entire Sperm Clan gene pool would be wiped out by a not so tragic meteor strike on a Sperm Clan reunion.
I can't say I wish she were
I can't say I wish she were never born bc I wouldnt want someone to say that about my child but if i had a TARDIS or DeLorean (a time machine) I would go back in time and make sure my DH didnt marry his X at all and she had the same child, but with someone else... So the result would be her not being his child, but i CANT SAY that I wish she were never born... I would feel like crap if I thought that. BUt yea... A time machine would be great.

I wish I would have met their father before their mother did....
