Yep! Call them my kids.

Sharp kid. He’s going places.

That is silly. My daughter can love a stepparent and it doesn’t change our relationship one but. I love her, she loves me. I’d be perfectly fine if her step dad loves her enough to refer to her as his daughter.
My wife is her step mom. My wife refers to her as our daughter. My ex wife is a great mother.

I’ve been thinking about it...maybe i’m Being to harsh.
I mean, I love my kids more Than anything...maybe i’m Just worried about being replaced.
I mean I hope that whoever their mom is with treats them like he would his own. If they were mistreated we’d have a serious problem.
Maybe i’m Just jealous. I’m their daddy. I’d like to think that’s a special thing that can’t be replaced so easily. Maybe i’m just insecure since their mom replaced me.
All I know is that I’m theirs and they are mine and I love them more than anything I could ever imagine.

Yes, I made it a point to make him feel just as loved as my own son and it was easy, he’s a good kid.
Same here.
we helped him to maintain a regular relationship with his dad, one night per week and every other weekend.
His dad is his dad. He calls me by my name. That has worked well.

I have an 8 year old stepson and I began dating his mom, now my wife, when he was 3. He has a Dad that was very involved so I didn’t jump into any Dad role. We have since moved to NC and the Dad to SC and they don’t see each other but summers and the occasional holiday weekend.
My wife wants me to have this affectionate relationship where I say I love you and hug him but that just isn’t the way we are to each other. He listens to me, he’s a good kid, and we have fun together... Outside of that I have no intentions of him ever calling me anything but by my name. I’ve said I love you a few times but it doesn’t feel natural so it doesn’t really happen too often.
I did not have an affectionate father so this isn’t something new to me. It works for us but his mom still gets in my case that I need to be more affectionate but it’s not going to happen.
It all depends on if you are that kids father role or not. I was not mines, so our relationship is more of a role model type than father/son.

Yes. I love them as my own and told them so while raising them. Didn't matter how they felt about it (I did value their feelings and opinions), they knew I was rock steady and always there for them.

I’ve got two step children ( they are both grown now) that I raised. They are my children, their real dad was never around. He is more now since they are both grown ups. They both call me daddy and tell me they love me daily. Their real dad told me thanks for raising them once, I told him sorry you missed out

I’ve been in my stepsons life since he was less than 2 years old and he’s now 13. We say love you and all of that, and he counts me as a parent when asked (his dad is still very involved). However, maybe because dad is still around a lot, i struggle calling him my “son” even though others often correct me by saying “he’s your son, he lives with you.” We just call each other by our names and it works fine.

I refer to mine that way but I leave it up them how they address me. I like it that way and some do call me dad and some do not. I am not their dad and respect them in that manner.

My dad and step mom got married when I was 7. For the first year or so I called her by her name but eventually I started calling her mom. She's been there for me far more than my biological mother.
Funny thing is I call my biological mother by her name instead of mom.

I have 3 stepsons that are 18,17 and 13 and I refer to them as my stepsons. They call me by my name and I call them by their name. Just more natural for us to do it that way.

’d like to think that’s a special thing that can’t be replaced so easily.

I think what really hit me was when my little boy asked me “is so-and-so gonna be our new dad?”
It just made me bristle and pull them close and tell them that I was dad and nothing would ever change that.
I think it kind of had me rankling my haunches. I already have to share holidays. I don’t want to share the one thing I had left that was mine and mine alone.

In before you and your wife disagree on something to do with them and she tells you that they aren't your real kids anyway
