If dad has given up, should I?

I come to this site whenever I don’t want to feel that I’m alone in my resentment of my step kids. I don’t hate them, I am just embarrassed and very disappointed in how they have turned out. Brief history, my husband and have been together for 13 years, married for 10. His son 27, lives with his girlfriend and is a great guy, we have a close relationship . My daughter is 21, lives with us, his two daughters 21 and 18 also live with us. All three of my steps have no relationship with bio mom, very long story, basically BM choice her abusive boyfriend over them.

BM pays for nothing

I really need advice on this one. I can take it if I am
wrong. My DH and I have paid for all the extracurricular
activities for his 3 children for the last 5 years. It's
in his separation agreement that BM pays 35% and
she hasn't in 5 years, so she owes us almost $5000.00.
Registration for next year is due and I finally
put my foot down and said the kids (13 and 16) will
not be playing if BM doesn't pay. We truly do not
have the funds, BM not paying any child support,
for 3 kids ( long story). Am I being unreasonable
