Being a step parent can be difficult if are not realistic and intentional. Still, just like any other relationship.
One of the things we as step mothers don't understand is that, the most affected party in a broken Relationship/s are the children. They are the biggest and first victims. They are helpless in all this.
This means that, as they come in our life, we need to understand that they are grieving the loss/separation of their parents. It will be natural that they will see you as an enemy, an intruder as a barrier. In this time, the most important virtues to practice are patience, calmness and consistency. Allow they to hurt, hate, heal and forgive. It's a process.
