123: Stepdad Who Feels Taken Advantage Of - a podcast by Lori Sims & David Sims

In this episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast, Lori and David, co-founders of Nacho Kids, interview John Burwell. John is a stepdad in his blend of four years. He has two adult bio sons and two stepdaughters, ages 21 and 12. John takes care of his blend financially but is expected to step back from any parenting of his youngest stepdaughter. John is dealing with feeling used, taken advantage of, and not part of the family. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• Stepdads struggle too
• Financially providing for your stepkid only to be told not to parent the stepkid
• Loyalty binds
• When bio dad decides to re-enter the picture
• When bio dad chooses to not help financially
