SS cannot handle disappointments

Invisible Woman's picture

This is a good example of how difficult it is to deal with SS(11). He’s so pessimistic and has a crazy all or nothing attitude.

He’s a picky eater. We’ve always dealt with this by telling him to eat what’s on his plate and not catering to him. But he’s used to eating different food at his BM’s (she’s not from the US) and him not eating is becoming a problem. There is a international food store about 30 miles away from our house that we hoped would have things he likes. So last Saturday DH and I packed up all the kids in the car and headed out to go there.

Trying to keep my sanity

I’ve been reading this forum for a several months now and finally have the courage to start a blog. I’m struggling being the stepmom to an 11 year old boy. But I don’t feel like a stepmom. He treats me like I’m invisible. I feel like we will never be able to be a family and this never can work.
