When Your Partner Plays Favorites, Overtly Picking Their Bio Kids Over Yours

Subscribe: https://anchor.fm/drpsychmomshow/subscribe for all my bonus episodes!  Most recent one was about who gets into sexless marriages. Also of course there's the oral sex on women one!  And close to 50 others, including one coming up about what your wife means when she says, "I'm overwhelmed!" For more discussion about these topics, join my secret Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/becomesupporter/DrPsychMom For therapy, contact us at www.bestlifebehavioralhealth.com I've had reader requests to discuss blended family difficulties.  I've discussed incorporating your new partner into your life (https://anchor.fm/dashboard/episode/e1j7p09) but there's also the issue of prioritization of certain kids over others.  It is essential that you don't feel like your partner is choosing their kids over yours, because this will lead to endless resentment down the road, from both you and your kids toward your partner (and from your kids toward you because you are with someone who overtly plays favorites!).  How can you deal with this situation and what sort of individuals end up in relationships with who pick their own kids so overtly?  And what if YOUR KIDS are the problem?
