    Font - I 44F have 2 to children with my husband (2) boy and (3) girl and a bonus daughter (18F) Emily. My stepdaughter has been living with us for 6 months this past year. She moved in because she told us her mother kicked her out since they didn't have a good relationship and her mother said she was too problematic.

    Font - Since her moving in, I've been very welcoming and I've spent more than enough money to help Emily get on her feet, this includes work shoes, comforter sets for her bed, hair products, clothing and underwear. We told her that she could live here as long as she needed, but since her moving here she's become a burden to both my children and I. My children and I are used to a regimen of waking up, spending time with my husband, him dropping them off to daycare and he goes off to work and when

    Font - My stepdaughter has become a burden, she has become entitled and whenever she needs anything financially she will ask either myself or my husband.

    Font - Daskesmoelf_8 19 hr. ago Professor Emerit [91] Youre writing the narrative, but you still come across as the AH... First off, since school isnt enough for her to do, why arent you telling us about your own job? Because from the sound of it, youre a SAHM but without the kids, so just a SAHW? Also, it easily sounds like she worked at a toxic workplace, which is especially common at chains where uniforms need to be bought. What do you mean with "taken the time from my children and used that

    Font - Practical-Big7550 - 17 hr. ago OP is jealous that a SD wants to spend time with their dad. What a sorry excuse for a step parent. Also it sounds like OP has just spent the basics on her stepdaughter, bedding, clothing, and sanitary supplies. OMFG the sky is falling, so much money is being spent on unnecessary things for SD. Have you OP tried to be a role model for SD? Just telling her to be an adult and start "adulting" without equipping her with the skills to succeed is setting her up fo
