I have 2 DDs and I really like their Step Mum although I always wonder why she's with XH.
My DDs are 9 and 11, XH and SM have been together for 6 years, she's has 3 Teen DC.
Their are just lots of good things that come with an extra pair of hands. When DD1 was starting secondary all of her step siblings were already their, so she knew lots of the older kids, had heard about the teachers and wasn't nervous at all.
When DD2 fell ill at school and DH and I had failed to pick up, I was in a meeting and he was on a plane, they managed to get a hold of SM who picked her up and took her home till she managed to get a hold of me.
She gets the DDs great presents, buys them clothes, treats them well etc I really don't have a bad thing to say about her, I think SM's sadly have a bad rep but the majority I think are fab
