Care and Feeding: What to do with your stepsisters who have had a rough time?

I was 16 when my stepmother and baby half -brother were killed in a car accident.

My stepsisters have accused my family of abandoning them after the deaths.

My dad was in a dark place and went no contact with everyone, even me, after the funerals.

I am struggling with guilt and resentment about being made feel guilty.

Your child isn’t too young for a conversation about the complicated nature of rules.

It’s okay to acknowledge that some rules seem unfair, or that at times, rules can make us upset.

Apologize profusely for making them late, if you haven't, and do your absolute best to avoid that next time.
