    it sucks, plain and simple.

    my mum and dad split when i was 15, and at the time i didn't get on with my pops at all. So for me it was kind of a blessing, my mum is great and was easy to live with, but for all my siblings it was horrific. i am second eldest of 6 kids (8 if you include my step dads) so to watch all the younger ones getting cut up was terrible.

    my mum got together with my now step dad, who coincidentally is the father to my eldest sister (they were togther before my mum met my dad, got preggers and my step dad was forced to leave my mum via his splendid parents) and they are still together now. silver linings and all that.

    i am a step dad myself. my partner is 5 years older than me, she has 3 kids from her previous chap. it is not easy. he creates most if not all the issues we go through, but we wont be beaten by his jealousy (self proclaimed).
