Hi There.
A question about Respect.....for my husband.
We are a blended family-three years married. I don't respect my husband's fathering his teen daughter. (Inconsistancies in discipline, permissive of disrespect and selfishness, and little monitoring of persistant lies). I have a teen daughter as well and other kids and all of our kids are with us full time and we have gotten to the point of having different rules and consequences for daughter and my kids. I am also to the point of not wanting to hear any details about the decisions he makes for her.
Please give me some gems of advice.
Thank you.
I would suggest seeing a counselor or your pastor. Consider making rules for the entire household, not just each individual child, including the adults. Learn to cooperate and compromise without 'giving in.' Pray together. Read books about discipline and see if your husband will also. If so, discuss it without arguing.
I hope that you are able to find assistance. God Bless you and yours.
