Me and my husband started dating when stepdaughter was 3 years old. We married 2 months into knowing each other and have been married for 6 years. When you know you know. He told me about his daughter and how she was not easy to deal with but me being me I thought children are children and how bad could she really be? I have 2 kids of my own, at the time my sons were 1 and 5. My 5 year old is autistic.
