But... if you're trying to tell me I can't discipline one of them, but only the other two, that's a big problem in any household. Doesn't work that way. If you're telling me you disagree with my thoughts on worst case attention getters if a kid is out of control, fine, I accept that.

I don't have kids living in another house so I have NO idea whatsoever what that feels like, but you can't hamstring a step-parent out of disciplinary decisions.

Edit to add, appreciate the no judgements. Don't mean any myself. Being a step-dad is the hardest thing i've ever had to do, but it's just as rewarding as being in the birthing room from Day1 too. There's only 1 way I know how to be a good parent, and that's 100%.
No difference between parents and step parents. Mom's boyfriend-of-the-month doesn't belong to the club.
