I hate to admit it, but I really dislike my step daughter. I DREAD when she visits. I've known her since she was 2, she is 4 now. She use to be so sweet and well behaved. Now she is defiant and rude, and says some pretty hurtful things to me and my husband (her father) She is only with us 2wks every 2-3 months.
I know I'm the adult, and I should just deal, but I'm having problems doing so. My husband and I have a 6 month old daughter together and I'm a stay at home mom. So I'm the one that has to care for the step kid ALL day and night.
I am not mean to this child in any way shape or form. But she goes home and tells her mother that I'm mean. I may SEEM mean, b/c I discipline her. I rank her overall behavior for the day w/a green, yellow, or red card. (good, OK, and bad behavior)
I am at the point where I don't want her coming anymore, and my husband feels likewise.
I know she is just a kid, but as the adult, what can I do?
