I am 44 and my boyfriend is 48. I have 3 boys and a daughter: ages 19, 15, 12 and 9. He has 3 boys also: ages 18, 15 and 11. Our youngest kids get along great, but our 15 year olds won't give each other the time of day. His 15 yr. old son is very worldly--he drinks, smokes, cusses and is constantly giving his father a hard time. My 15 year old is a strict Christian who does not do any of the above things. He goes to church 3 times a week and has very high morals. I really hope for a future with this wonderful man, but I am afraid that there is no way to happily blend our 2 families. I also am not sure that I want my kids exposed to some of the things his 15 yr. old does. I love and get along great with his 2 other sons, but I think that both of our 15 year olds boys resent the fact that we are getting so close. They both are very loyal to our ex-spouses. Is there a way to live happily ever after and still have happy children? Any advice is much appreciated!
