I have been a Step Father for going on 4 years now and I have to say if i could do it all over I would have married a woman with no children. I have a step daughter that is down right rude, and her mom just pushes it off and always says " she's a child". I understand that she is a child but I have never seen one this mean. At school she pushes, trips and just tries to hurt other children and it always seems not to be her fault. At home she says things under her breath that only I can hear and then when I try to scold her once again it's my fault.
