| Hi, I am new to the group also. My weekend was a busy one. I was just in Bend, OR. I introduced my 2 year old to her 20 year old step sister, whom I met for the first time. It was interesting to say the least, but I think it went well. Can anyone hear relate to this kind of a situation? |

Hi everyone! I am kinda new to the group too. I took my 2 yr old to the fair this weekend with mixed success. He was afraid to go on most of the rides and liked the playground best (which we could go to anytime). Overall it was fun until he got tired and threw a big temper tantrum.
Lele I am curious to know how your visit went with your step daughter. My son has a 21 year old half-brother that lives out of state and they've never met. I wonder if he will want to have any kind of relationship with my son and I'm afraid to ask. Good luck to you I hope it all works out. |

| thans for the feedback. Well, the weekend introducing my two year old toher 20 yr old half sister went really well. Actually I was pleasantly surprised. At first things were a little tense, which is what would be expected. My two year old was bashful and shy, but the 20 yr old really tried to get close to her and was persistant yet suddel with getting her to interact through play. I think it help showing them both that they are both loved, and trying to focus on doing things together (everyone, me, my daughter, the 20 yr old, husband, grandparents, etc.). We started by having a few meals together, reading and laughing together, taking a long hike together as a family, etc. By the end of the weekend, the two year old was letting the 20 year old pick her up and hug her. I think the 20 yr. old was fascinated, because she does not having any other siblings and perhaps saw some of herself in the two year old. Of course I tried to suddely show them they they both had similarities when the opportunity arose. So anyways thats what happened. I hope it is the infor. you were looking for in trying to relate it to your situation. |

| Thanks Lele! That does help. I was thinking that my step-son might feel the same way because he doesn't have any other siblings. However, my ex doesn't want him to know because it would just be a burden to him plus he would have to deal with what a jerk his father is. My ex is not involved with my son and is not supporting him. I just think it would be nice for my son to have a brother even if he lives far away, but I don't want to hurt or upset my step-son. He is a great kid and I don't want to come between him and his father. Anyway, I'm really glad that your visit went so well. Thanks for the inspiration. |
