I am a step-mom to a 17 year old girl. She has never ever accepted me and I have been with her father for 13 years now. However, I always try to nurture/foster THEIR relationship! Little does she know that I am the one reminding Daddy of important dates/ times to call/ big upcoming events where he needs to be with her! but that's not for me to tell...it's really not about US...you just be respectful and treat her as you would want to be treated...you are the adult. If she never returns the favor it more than likely is that her Mother has never tried to teach her to create a relationship with you...her loss and it's not in OUR control! got it? hope that helps...it's a little blunt but I have been walking this walk for 14 years!
