Having Stepchildren
Is hard.
House Rules
Because I'm not their biological parent, I have to be extra careful about how I interact with them. Having
house rules helps me to do that.
We're instituting some rules to make sure everyone is safe and comfortable.
- Ask before playing games online.
- Ask before using the tablet.
- Ask before turning on the TV.
- Say "yes sir" and "yes ma'am" to grown-ups.
- Be polite and don't talk back.
Wish us luck!
