Hopefully since I've had him since he was 2 1/2 things will go okay. SO anyways I had to make up an acct. so I didn't post Anonymous anymore since someone used my "secret" code to you.

Blogs are a u...Way to stand up for yourself, Jenn!<br /><br />Blogs are a useful tool to vent, get advice, and just generally feel like part of a community. When anonymous people take it upon themselves to judge and ridicule someone's personal blog, they are just being rude and cowardly. <br /><br />This blog is your opportunity to say what you really feel, whether it's something you'd say in real life or not. <br /><br />Don't let the haters take that away from you.<br /><br />Your handling of this situation with your step-daughter seems completely mature and respectful. If you want to vent about the frustrations it entails, you are completely justified in doing so.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16239548717452353436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864154272358329303.post-14165377290874624482010-03-02T08:33:43.350-08:002010-03-02T08:33:43.350-08:00I think when someone makes bold anonymous comments...I think when someone makes bold anonymous comments like that they are probably feeling pretty crappy about their lives. I have gotten my share of those comments, the best way to deal with it is to ban anonymous comments, like you have. Try not to give more energy towards this than you should, honestly its not worth it. :)Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510857374154586102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864154272358329303.post-969685232740757592010-03-02T06:45:30.352-08:002010-03-02T06:45:30.352-08:00Yeesh those were some hurtful comments.

You sound like you are doing a good job and if all the parents are on the same page that is a wonderful thing! I bet you and your step-daughter will have a great relationship someday :)jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645802594940433840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864154272358329303.post-79660600719283260082010-03-01T15:24:25.365-08:002010-03-01T15:24:25.365-08:00Dear Anonymous,

We all know how hard you're trying to help your step-daughter and clearly you are working together with both your husband and her mother. Honestly, you have so much patience with this that it really impresses me. I hope Anonymous didn't upset you too much.)quadmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17254199098599230245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864154272358329303.post-49115058076709819732010-03-01T13:24:51.876-08:002010-03-01T13:24:51.876-08:00I admire you for finding a place to vent and be so...I admire you for finding a place to vent and be so honest about your emotions.

I am so sorry you received such ignora...Dear Jenn! I am so sorry you received such ignorant and insensitive comments on your blog by one or more anonymouses! <br /><br />Sorry I am just catching up here, but as a stepmom myself I think you are being more than reasonable and patient in this situation. I don't blame you for feeling betrayed, and I'll be that K's guess about your stepdaughter's motive for her behavious is not "ridiculous" at all, but right on! I am not sure I trust this counsellor completely, because I think it would make most sense to talk to the little girl without her parents present at all, if possible, or at least with just you, so this can be sorted out. I'll bet she does love spending time with you and that she does feel like she is somehow betraying her bio mom by doing so...her bio mom may be able to help with this by telling her she wants her to enjoy her time with you and that there can be room in her heart for 2 mommies. We had a similar situation when The Teenager was aroun 5 or 6 - he started to seem agitated when he was with us and saying he wanted to go to his other house - it turned out that his bio mom was unwittingly creating a codependence with him by making a big fuss about how much she would miss him when he wasn't there. Once we got to the bottom of it, she stopped doing it and he could relax. <br /><br />Sorry for the long post, but I just want you to know I am here for you and I understand and I support you. And I want "Anonymous" to know that they're totally clueless about blended families.<br /><br />Love,<br />MaddyMad Hatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08262994711680542891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864154272358329303.post-42955589778659342152010-03-01T11:34:23.380-08:002010-03-01T11:34:23.380-08:00Good for you.
