kind of a sappy post sorry. but I've known my step father since I was four and hardly know my real father. my step dad is far from a father he verbally abused me and my sister since we were small. he'd hit on my mom every once and a while and tell her we were her biggest mistakes. now I have an opportunity to be a step parent and I'll be damned if either one of my babies ever feel the way I did my whole life. I love em to death!
thank you and what a sweet story. my mother's sister married my step dad's brother. I think of (his names Todd) Todd more of a father then anybody. when I first met him I guess I asked him y my daddy doesn't love me every since then he's raised us
exactly! and because of that my oldest brother has 2 kids that he and we all treat as part of the family, we would never say different. he has 1 with his ex wife that's not biologically his and one with his current wife that's biologically not his either but when you ask him he says he has 6 kids (not 4) when you ask anyone in our family we always include them. My dad to this day still gets emotional when he thinks about the day my oldest brother walked up to him n said "my daddy doesn't want me, will you be my daddy?" my dad cries when he thinks about that. You're a strong woman @scarletsmomma your admirable hun!
yes that what I tell people and their mother is happy I feel that way my fiancé also refer to my daughter as his own. and I'm glad ur father was such a power role in ur brothers libes everyone deserves to be loved regardless whether or not either urs
That's so sad that this happened to you! That's great that you want to be there for your step child! My dad adopted my brothers before they had me and you would never guess they're not "his". if anyone asks he always says he has 3 kids. It takes a strong person to step up like that. So you go girl!!! Your such a good woman and great mama!!
