Stepmom vs. Overprotective Dad: Who's in the Right?
Our stepmom's world turned upside down when her hubby started questioning her every move with his 7-year-old daughter. From a fractured arm incident to a late school pickup, tensions kept rising. The final straw? A girls' weekend filled with shopping, eating out, and Disney marathons while Dad was away on business. His reaction upon return? 'Be a proper mother figure for once!' Ouch! In the heat of the argument, our stepmom fired back, saying he should send the girl to live with her alcoholic mom if he doesn't think she's fit. Now, she's regretting her harsh words and questioning her mothering instincts. Let's see what the internet thinks of this sticky situation...
