Hi all, name changed for this.
Married to DH, have a 5 month old DS and a 10yr old DSS. I am on maternity leave at the minute and DSS happens to be unwell with tonsillitis, I have looked after him before when he is sick, I don't mind. However because I am on maternity leave it is just presumed by my DH and his ex wife that I will look after him, without so much as a thank you. I can't help but feel taken advantage of...especially with having such a young baby to care for as well.
I know this sort of stuff can be part and parcel of being in a blended family but it's difficult. Anyone been there? Am I right to be used this way?
