I am new here, and when I signed up, I was hoping to find a forum dedicated to the very specific issues related to custodial stepparents, especially stepmoms. I've been looking for resources and support specifically related to being a custodial stepmom since I married my husband when his children were then 2 and 3. As a custodial stepmom, I am in the position of making parenting and more importantly mothering decisions daily for children who already have a mother (although one they only see every few months). I'm sure there are other women out there like me that struggle with the very unique challenges of this situation. I'd love to talk to some.
