Greetings Everyone,
I have often heard adults new to a relationship with children involved from a previous relationship distinguish between and sometimes take preference over the children. I am trying to overstand what it is that would make them feel the need to be this way. Could it be hard emotionally for the adult to accept that their previous relationship did not work out? Does each parent feel over protective for bringing their child into the new situation? How does this effect the children and the home environment? Not saying that it would necessarily be all bad but how do you create a realistic balance?
Anyone care to share their views? Edited: just incase it's too personal.
I would appreciate if this could be as nonjudgemental a thread as possible...please *crossess fingers*
