not sure how to try.....

Because my bf's teenage children dont want to meet me, and think that I am the wicked witch of the North, Im not sure how I should be acting with them. Every Haloween I make candy apples and little treats up for my kids and the neighbourhood kids, and I want to include them on these sorts of things my bf thinks that they will refuse the apples but as petty as it seems I think that he should try so that they know that I am trying. Should I be leaving it alone, or putting myself out there for them, it seems fair that they get treated the same as my kids are....

Poison apples }:) sorry...just made me think those wicked stepmom thoughts for a minute when thinking of the apples you wanted to give them...

If they don't want to meet you and you REALLY want to put yourself out there and be the bigger person tell your BF to give them the apples and candy with a note from you that says, "happy halloween...hope you enjoy the treats!"

Just something simple like that. Now I'm mean so I'd say screw the little buggers and they'll have to meet me first before they get ANY treats or nice things from me.

I totally understand where you are coming from and you are right they should be treated the same but I would just let it go until they are ready to come around. I would tell your DH to at least mention it to them and if they want them great, if not, no skin off your back.
