stepdaughters are killing my soul

Please read my journal for the complete story.I and my husaband have had custody od them sinece they were six and eight. I always thought there would be light a the end of the tunnel...but I was wrong. They are adults now -23 and 20 and hateful, ungrateful and only hang arounfd for money and so fourht. Their lastest and by far their biggest blow to us was to call social services on me and my husabnd regarding my kids aged 5 and 13. This was dismiised and deemed malicous, But hte pain of your children hurting you over money and haveing no regard to their little sisters makes me totally sick. Just can't help but to think I wasted all that time trying to raise them the right way. We dealt with their bio. mom who is a very unstable person she is the one who kept them up in the air and taught them to hate us.

  im really sorry to hear this... the hardest thing is to be hard on your own family but if your all adults now i think the most important thing would be your children (the 5 and 13 y/os) id honestly be putting all my love and attention into them so that you dont end up with the same problem in 10 years time because of the stress the other two are causing... their adults and they are acting as conscious adult beings therefore they should be held accountable for their actions as their mother you know your self that you wil never stop loving the eldest two but you need to give your self a break and put some positivity into your life the only way yur gonna do that is giving them a wide birth for a while then they themselves might questions and if they dont then you have got your answer.. good luck xxxx

  thnaks little sad - I gave up on any replies to my post so I have not been on in a long time. I agree with your advice. I did cut them off.I can't have this kind of trouble and stress added to my family. After all life is tough enough as we all know. I am still floored at thier actions and just sick over their utter greed. But as a (step)mother I will always love them. I was a very good stepmom to them. I cared and had always treated them as my own. Thanks for the reply!

This is for those who have experienced major upheaval in their life and who want to know that it will be ok again.
