Question - (16 July 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 17 July 2009)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

my husband can not stand my 2 children, his step children. He wants nothing to do with them, cause he can not stand their dad. My kids are 11 and 8, they are just kids. My husband and I have one child together and he is a great dad to her, but he ignores my other 2 kids. What do I do? We have been together for a little over 6 years so this is nothing new to him.

rcn agony auntThe kids are not the dad. He needs a new look on how he's treating them. Shouldn't blame or treat the kids differently just because he doesn't like their father.

You need to be firm with him. Your family does not just consist of you two and your daughter. By ignoring your other kids, he's causing mental harm to them, which as their mother you need not allow. These two kids should not be punished for having another dad. That's absolutely wrong, and needs to not happen.

If it keeps up, this marriage may not be the best environment for any of you.

QuirkLady agony auntThat's cold blooded of your husband to take his dislike out on the kids. They didn't ask for him and their dad not to get along, and they didn't ask for your relationship with their dad to fall apart. He needs to get a damn clue and treat the kids equally or he risks seriously emotionally damaging them. Stand up for your children and demand that they all be treated well. He should NEVER, repeat NEVER, ignore your kids. They are a part of you forever and he needs to understand that!
