Stepparenting can bring a lot of joy – and a lot of challenges, too. Just as a parent-child relationship evolves over time, so does a stepparent-child relationship.The relationship is a two-person job.
Keep in mind that although love will hopefully grow over time, you do not need to love your stepchild. However, it is essential that you respect them, your role with them, and that you treat them with kindness.Talk with your spouse what your role is and how you would like it to develop. You may be more of a babysitter , a respected adult , or a full parent figure with all the authority that this entails.
