'It's too bad she didn't take no an answer': Stepmom forces mother-daughter relationship on kid despite her wishes
Being a step-parent is a tough role to fill. You can have all the best intentions in the world and still end up alienating the child because at the end of the day, it's not up to you, it's up to them.

They're always portrayed as wicked and unfeeling. It's an uphill battle for real step-parents to disprove.
