NKP 228: CA Stepmom Being A Stepkid Versus Being A Stepmom 

 October 13, 2023

By  Lori Sims

DISCLAIMER:  Mention of abuse and suicide in this episode.

In this episode, Lori Sims, founder of Nacho Kids Nacho Parenting, welcomes a previous stepmom back to share her story of being a stepkid versus being a stepmom. Stepmom had a lot of resentment towards her dad for not being a part of her life. She would visit her dad in the summer, until she chose to go live with him and her stepmom. She expected her blend as a stepmom to be like the blend she grew up in. And it was not. 

In this episode, we discuss the following:

  • Being a stepkid

  • Seeing bio dad in summer to living with bio dad

  • Blended expectations

  • Stepmom given the parental authority

  • The power of words

Nacho Kids Academy Nacho Parenting Success Story:

“Being a therapist, I thought I would know how to “blend” and make our family be like a nuclear family. I had no clue! I joined the Nacho Kids Academy and was able to get the help I truly needed. There is no shame in therapists needing help too!” ~ A.B.
