How To Deal With Stepkids You Don T Like. Focus on your marriage. The more you let these see it bothers you you let them win. Let your husband know what bothers you the most about the childs behavior. Dont keep secrets from your partner or make deals about breaking the rules with your step-kids as this takes you out of.
Be emotionally available to them and use non-negotiable phrases like I dont like how youre talking to me or I dont find that behaviour acceptable. Bio-parent needs to communicate your health concerns to the children and the options need to be considered together when possible. Find other stepmoms who need a friend. Sometimes making things work just means finding a way to co-exist or just to cope. Dont try to read your stepchilds mind Know that as a parent or stepparent you cannot read your stepchilds mind. Being honest they will never change.
Tell your darlings to dance around any differences at those first meetings.
Thats the best way to deal with this. To be clear like your stepchildren or not you married your partner in spite of the children not because of them. Remember that its probably not you. You dont have to struggle through this alone. Be sensitive to your step-childrens bond with their pets. As she will tell you the best-kept secret of step-parenting is that just because you fall for your partner it doesnt mean youll take to their children.
