Is it normal that I can't love my stepchild???

I'm really confused - so he moved in but you raise your daughter 24/7 on your own with no help??!

From what I can make out.... You do NOT need to volunteer to mind HIS child during the week, tell them you are too busy!

Do you have to be there at the weekend when this child comes over?
This is HIS quality time with his child - you should not be a babysitter for him. Force him to face his responsibilities.

This 3 year old knows how to push your buttons and likes to wind you up - as will your own, soon enough. Do not react, or coax her to do anything. He is her dad and is stronger than her, so he is able to put her in the bath. She is too young to make her own decisions.

If I were you, I would steer well clear of this child and force him to deal with her! She is desperate for attention, for good or bad behaviour, but he doesn't seem to be giving her any and you are just in the way creating another barrier.

Butt out and let the two of them have a relationship - even if he has to take her to his mother's for the weekend!!

Good luck!!!
