No. Way.<BR/><BR/>It's not that I don't get pissed off at PrinceCharming for this situation - I just get pissed off less. ;) And my original understanding of what it would be like as a Stepmom couldn't have been farther from what it's actually been like.<BR/><BR/>I'm still learning.

On the other, as my sister often says because of her own situation: sometimes it's easier to have an ex that you can hate together. I'm so impressed that you are able to be furious with M. instead of Prince Charming for your having to deal with all this.

Our version of M., who my husband and I lovingly refer to as "the Bitch", took our Princess to the dentist and had two of her baby teeth pulled because she had two small cavities!!! We had scheduled an appointment with her regular dentist, but apparently B. didn't feel patient that day or something. <BR/>We found out about it the day after it was done.

My stepdaughter wears hand-me-down clothes while her mother buys a new flat-screen tv, a new computer, a new car, etc etc. It's sooo frustrating to see.

We pay for my step-daughter's medical and dental insurance 150 bucks a month (for just her) and her mother still tells us that when she needs to take her in she needs help paying the 15 dollar copays.

You and the Prince will have to, at times, just do what is best for Cinderella's well being & health because Cinderella deserves that. Just the fact that she told you the TRUTH shows the positive influence you have on her life. You know that wasn't easy for her. <BR/><BR/>You can't change M. or anything about her.
