Well here is the story. My fiance wants to move his daughter (14) in with us. My daughter (12) and his do not get along. She hasn't lived with him for seven years. She lives with her so called mother that puts boyfriends before her childs care. Spends all the child support we pay out over 100 a week on herself. The kid looks like a bum. Although I feel sorry for her I myself find it hard to be around her because she has this attitude and I don't wnat to be a party to it in my home. The hosue is mine , my name and all but I love him dearly. I just don't feel it will be a good idea to move her into our home. She disrepects me at all times and he feels so guilty that he couldn't move her out of the situation wtih the looser mom taht he jsut explains her actions away to me. I have had it. He diciplines my daughter but not his own. She needs a good talking too and her mouth washed out also. I need any help anyone can give me. Thank you so much I have myself sick over this.

Hi, and Welcome!

First, I would set some ground rules before he moves his daughter in. You need to tell your finance what needs to happen before you would even consider having her move in. Afterall, you said it is your house and I think if she moves in as it is now she will TAKE over!

After you have discussed your issues with your fiance, then you both need to have a long talk with his daughter.

Overall, it sounds like your home would be better for your fiance's daughter than her mother's house but only if everyone involved is working together!!
