I just dont understand!!! BM sent my step daughter to live with us 6 months ago. She arrived with only 1 suitcase. BM sent one very small box of things...2 pairs of jeans and a couple shirts....all of which were purchased at a thrift store.

Its starting to get cold. We live in CA. She use to live in Maryland with her mother. Her dad bought her UGG boots last year for xmas. She says she has warm clothing...sweaters, jackets, etc.

IT DOESNT SEEM TO BE GETTING ANY BETTER!!!!

It has been almost 6 months since my step daughter came to live with us. Things dont seem to be improving. This child came from a home where she was left alone alot and was able to pretty much do whatever she wanted....whenever she wanted.

Now she comes here to rules, and structure, and schedules. Obviously things arent going well. All I keep hearing is "Well my mom let me do it" Do I give a shit what your mom did or didnt do!!! NO!!!!! This is MY house and MY rules!!!

NO MEANS NO!!!!

I still cant figure it out. My step daughter is nothing like my biological children except for my 5 year old who still whines and cries if he cant have something he wants. But my older children understand the word "no". Although they may not like it they rarely will argue. They might say please please...but they dont sass me or talk crap to me.
