Question Posted Sunday March 18 2007, 3:48 pm
I'm very new to this site I just happened to stumble on it by accident and sure glad that I did but noticed that they are alot of teenagers and not that many adults older than 18. I posted my question on here or on the site its the one " Getting to know my husbands 17yr old daughter" I'm not sure if you will be able to retrieve it or should I retype the question on your site, I'm so very new to this chat room thing so I really dont know how it works so please let me know?

It's easy to get sucked in to the situation and feel sorry for the girl, but I get a sense that she and her mother will wreck havoc on your life. I think it's best not to get involved. Your husband obviously has to decide his level of involvment with his newly found daughter, but care should be taken every step of the way. While none of her upbringing is her fault, it affects her and she is obviously going to be dysfunctional. She may be manipulative--and will take advantage of your family situation because she does not have the life skills that you and your children have. She may even try to manipulate your child that she is writing to. I'd say keep your distance for now, and keep your children at a distance. It sounds cold I know, but I think you need to look out for yourself and your kids. You didn't do anything to cause this and shouldn't have to put any effort into fixing it.
