I am new to this forum and it has been a wonderful help to read all your posts. I have read several of you brave people speak of "detatching". I have read books about it but still seem to have a hard time deciding when do I detatch??? As I mentioned in my post a few days ago, I married a widower and I have a SD 22 and SD 19. I am child-free (I saw that on this website and think its brilliant:) Any advice would be great as I am starting to get very resentful my husband lets the girls treat me poorly due to his "guilt" of their moms passing.

New to this forum and seeking some sanity:)

I am married 5 years (together 7) to a widower with two SD. They are now 22 and 19 and they make my life so hard. They are disresptful to me, dismiss me and my DH doesn't see it and says its me. Ihave raised them supported them as if they were my own as their mother has passed. My DH was single for 3 years before we met. His children are so mean to me but when he is around they are nice and so it seems I am the one with the problem. I never wanted to take their mothers place (nor could I) but to not be respected is very hard.
