We don’t associate with my stepdaughters (daughters) mom because of the way she treats her however we always make time for our daughter (I don’t like to call her stepdaughter she’s family) we just have the grandparents drop her off so we don’t have to deal with any drama it’s a long story i don’t know what this woman is going through with the bm but sounds like a jealousy thing and that’s not cool

My best friend is my half brother

In our family there is no half or step, there is brother or sister. This should not be a question. Children are entitled to be a part of their siblings life, and it is up to you to make that happen until they are old enough to do it themselves.

Would she be taking my child without me? Absolutely not.
Would me and my SO attend with the baby so they could bond with their siblings?
Yes.

You must be either insecure of yours and your fiancés relationship or you just see him as only your child’s father. Either way they exist and are there. Personally I’d consider looking at the person looking about for the kids

As long as the mother is a stable and safe I would love to open that door to let the children build these amazing memories together. Plus take the opportunity to use this as a mom break or date time with hubby.

It’s like asking my kid do you want to go to your half brothers birthday? WTH they may not have the same father but they are BROTHERS! Regardless! We do not call them half siblings and if they ever call each other half siblings I will lose my shit and they know that! Only adults gotta put that in their heads!

Why isn’t the father taking your baby to the birthday party of his other children? This shouldn’t be an issue because he really needs to attend that party. I sure hope your not making him choose between you and his other children, and if you are then shame on you and shame on him for not kicking you to the curb. Children are innocent.

My advice…If you are uncomfortable then follow your gut instincts. Your fiance can throw a seperate party for his kids at your home to include your baby as well. :blush:

Sometimes I question the questions …yes there is absolutely no reason why siblings step, half, adopted, biological or otherwise should be kept from one another unless due to a reason that could or does cause them harm. I think how great is it that she chooses to want & encourage that relationship. Maybe a lesson could be learned through her loving heart that would make your blended family unit even stronger.

yes its beyond wrong wtf…

Ok so you don’t want them to know each other. Let me ask you this; you get your way and they don’t know, WHAT IF they later meet and fall in love have sex and produce a child, that would be incest are you cool with that because it can happen. I feel sorry for them to have a parent who thinks like you.

She could have easily said that shes having a party for her kids and only invited their father. The fact that she wants your child there shows that’s shes doing what’s right for all of you. I know if feels like baby mommas are SUPPOSED to hate each other but we need to break that cycle. I mean wouldn’t life be easier if you all got along? Of course I’m assuming that both u and him are also invited. If she just wanted your child there I’d probably say no in that case.

They siblings they need too be around each other. Never keep the babies apart even if you don’t like the person as long as they are not treated any different from one another

It’s wrong of you to not let them know him unless his safety is a concern otherwise, let them have a relationship!! I have a beautiful step daughter and she is the step sister of my oldest son and half sister of my newest. I raise her as my own and love her as my own. Sometimes you can’t tell she’s not mine! Plus, think about this, those kids (including your own), could grow to resent you when they’re older for this if you keep them separate. Don’t punish them when they’ve done nothing wrong!

Wow its their sibling. Dont be childish, of course they should be in the babys life

…just because they didnt come from your uterus doesnt mean they shouldnt know their other siblings… they share a dad. That matters. I feel it’s kinda selfish to not want them around. What if your child resents that you withheld them from their siblings when they’re older? As long as it’s a safe environment.

Sounds like the other children are the ones that need protection. I wouldn’t let her take your child but what woman who has given life to another would intentionally keep a child from its siblings. Get help, please.

That’s not living life to its fullest.

I have half siblings that I have never had the opportunity to know and now the ones that have a choice refuse to acknowledge me. I’m ignored. And it hurts. I think you should let them know eachother. They share 50% of their DNA

They should go to the party and it’s not a half sibling it’s their brother or sister I have 2 children and they have 2 older sisters I would never call them there half sisters they are family no matter what and you should be thankful that you’re fiancé ex wants to spend time with your children or child cause most baby mommas don’t want anything to do you the children so send them to the party and send diapers bottles and exchange of clothes

They’re half siblings, let them go to the damn party. Let them get to know they’re siblings!

I can’t shake my head at this enough. Put your self centered, thoughtless, and petty thoughts behind you. Your baby is their sibling and deserves a relationship with them, regardless of how immature you are. Next!

Your child deserves to know their siblings, half or not. My son has two half siblings and it took over a YEAR before their mom would even let ME meet them. Would I allow my son to be alone with their mom? Absolutely not. Would I allow my son to be around and get to know his siblings? ABSOLUTELY!

Don’t be the reason things don’t work out in your relationship and then blame everyone else. Your child won’t be happy later in life finding out they have siblings but didn’t know because of YOU.

Your child does NOT need to spend personal time with her. The siblings can spend time with the baby when they come to visit their father. How old is the baby? Is she really insisting on taking your baby to spend time with her and the kids alone?

Do the siblings come over to y’alls house on the weekends or anything?

I have 2 sisters. One who is a half sibling that’s older and another that was a full sibling but she past away. You need to let them grow up together and put any feelings aside. You need to treat those kids as yours as she seems to wanted to do with your child.

I’m gonna be honest here speaking as a child that wasn’t allowed to know her own half siblings. Your children will resent you for it. Don’t be petty. Put aside your own feelings. This is about children not parents.

The level of immaturity is almost laughable. Baby shouldnt spend time with HER?!?! How old r some of yall grow up. Blended families just add more people to love your child. My son spends time at his brothers fathers house with his stepmother non of whom is no blood relation to my youngest son except my oldest son and they all love him just like they do my other son. I mean really people come on. How petty have people become smh

I didn’t know my half brother and sister until I was 21. I went looking for them and it took us a few years but I don’t regret it at all. Let them be around each other, y’all need to get along anyway as you will be around for quite a long time. They are still blood, so just learn to deal and let them know each other.

What the hell. If the kid wants to get to know their half siblings they should be allowed to. It’s different if the child doesnt want to but yeh who are you to stop a child from getting to know their brothers or sisters. Being their mum doesnt give you the right to take that opportunity to know their family away from said child. Grow up and be mature about it.

Yes, it is actually VERY wrong for you to not want your children to know their siblings. What in the hell kind of question is that? They are entitled to know their family. So, you want your future husband’s children to never come to his home and feel welcome?! I hope he sees this and lays into you about it. That’s so immature.

Absolutely! I’m engaged to a man who has a child with his ex, and she’s actually not that bad. His child needs his biomom as much as his child needs him. This past year, she actually invited my son from a previous relationship, me, and my fiance to their now 3 year olds birthday. It was the first time I’ve spent extended time around her aside from pick ups and drop offs, and while it’s a little awkward , I believe in being kind and open because if not for her, we also wouldn’t have the 3 year old. So yes, the chold needs to be around his siblings. Get over your insecurities for the sake of the child if anything. It’s not healthy, and later on, as the child grows up, they’ll resent you for it.

My dad’s sisters are " half" but to him it don’t matter, him and his little brother were adopted by their stepdad. I even forget that they aren’t full… Until I look at ancestry lol

It’s incredibly selfish of you to even ask if you should allow this. Your child has siblings. Don’t let them grow up and resent you for at least not trying.

How is this even a question? Those children deserve to know and love each other.
My half sibling is literally my favourite and kindred spirit out of multiple siblings.

If there isn’t a reason to not have them know/interact with each other then why not?? I can see if there is history of abuse, disrespect, neglect, then I understand. But like it or not those children are related…and if you’re getting married you will be their step mother. In my opinion the mother of the 2 siblings is being more of an adult than you are and is doing her best to coparent. Especially if she wants you to also attend, might be a lil awkward, but it’s not about you anymore…you have a kid and it’s about that child now

Go out of your way to include them…

You seriously do not want your child to know his/her siblings??? These children are also your fiance’s children. If you can’t deal with a man who has other children than you should have kept your legs close and not procreate with him. Actually you shouldn’t have procreated at all because you are too immature and a horrible human being to be a parent. Smh. I can’t stand females like you.

My brothers a “half” brother. And because of my family’s stupid bullshit I never got to meet him in person. I HATE my family because of what they did to me and my brother. And your childs going to grow up to hate you because you think the babies siblings arent important because they’re half or they arent yours? I couldnt stand for you to be my mother. Because you’re acting like my mother, my grandmother, and my brothers peice of shit. And you are a peice of shit. Good luck with your child blaming you for a lot.

They Are siblings and should be together as much as possible. Period

Super surprised he’s going to marry someone with this outlook towards his older children… Don’t be the toxic/evil stepmother… No child deserves that… You’re acting very insecure and quite frankly very selfish… They are your child’s siblings… They need each other… So suck it up
