Stepfamily for the Birds
This stepfamily stuff is for the birds. If you think it will get easier when they're older - nope. Harder.
At least when they're younger, they have an excuse for bad behavior (their other parent, lol). As adult stepchildren - not so much. It's all on them.

You're right, it IS hard! Have you checked out our website? Lots of good articles and information that might be of help. Good luck and hang in there!
They are not easy. Actually stepfamily life full stop is not easy, but there is support out there.
Are you involved with any support groups?

I have been involved. I even have a step blog (www.stepfamilysanctuary.com) and facebook for it as well. Sometimes I find that stepping back from the stepfamily support stuff helps me regroup. Sometimes all the negative just makes things worse so I need a break.
I invite you to the RemarriageWorks.com group on Facebook at http://facebook.com/RemarriageWorks We'd love to have you join us.
