I stumbled on this site as I sat in a restaurant all by myself after yet another argument with my husband over what kids should and shouldn't be asked to do. While googling for some advice...here I landed. I am feeling defeated and really not understanding what the point of all this is. I get treated as if I don't exist for the last 12 years because my step kids believe what their mother told them as true. You know that wonderful label of "homewrecker" amd so many other things. None of which is even close to the truth.
