A female Australia age 30-35, anonymous writes:

how do i stop resentment for my boyfriends daughter? i feel so slack... i am constantly annoyed at her.. she is 2, i find myself annoyed everyday, she is very naughty. sometimes i cant handle coming 2nd. will this get any easier? its been a yr and a half and it seems to be getting worse..

my bf also never fills me in with plans regarding her e.g. her mother will call with an hours notice and say im dropping her off (regardless of our plans) and he wont tell me until she has arrived. he says it doesnt affect me, which i dnt understand, how can it not affect me when we are not free? have to stay in and babysit and also have a child sleeping in our room at night!

Starlights agony auntfirstly i must commend you for putting up with someone's else daughter, not alot of people can handle such a difficult situation.

secondly kiddies that age are always naughty. always running around and causing havoc, thats what kids that age do. dont judge her, it isnt her fault she's just a baby.

you need to speak to your bf and let him know clearly the stress its causing you.

if the mother wants to drop the child spontainously she needs to give more notice as you may have already made plans to go out.

you are entitled to a life too, and although he has a child it shouldnt stop you having basic right of time together.

good luck
