stepdaughters are killing my soul

Posted on 08/04/08, 09:57 am

Please read my journal for the complete story.Me and my husband have had custody of shis daughters since 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 around for money and to use us and so on. Their lastest and by far their biggest blow to us was to call social services on me and my husband regarding my kids( mine & Hubby) aged 5 and 13. This was dismissed and deemed malicous, But the pain of your children hurting you over money and having 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. A true bad example of haow to treat people - guess she rubbed off. They are acting just like her. Please help me....I am feel like a part of me is dead.

  I am so sorry about your situation..I have a similar situation but it is not my children, but my mother and sister. My mother is a drug addict and an abusive parent. I left home at 17 because of her and now my sister is in a juvenile detention home bcz of her. The only time that she comes around is when she needs money. She spent my stepfathers life insurance in one year after he passed away - that was over $150,000. I am right there with you when you say that people teach hate. My sister will not trust me because of all the hate and lies that my mother has filled her head with. I hope that your situation gets better or at least take the edge off, feeling that it will finally be OK one day when the girls grow up and have children of their own and they may finally see what you guys were trying to do. Let me know if I can do or say anything to help.

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