trouble with step daughter
along story short ladies.
My husband has 2 children, miss 8 and master 6.
Ever since we really told them we were expecting miss 8 has been some what interested, however when we told them we were expecting a boy master 6 was over the moon and miss 8 couldnt of cared less and ever since just says nasty things constantly etc
She is forver being nasty to Master 6 and is often very sneaky.
I have spoken to my mother in law and she agrees that Miss 8 is very spolit being the 1st grandchild, and changes will be made so its not such a shock when baby arrives and attention is taken off her.
I love her dearly, but i find my patience wearing thin with her and can feel myself about to snap with her bratty attidude.
We have joint custody with their mother and she is constantly trying to play everyone off againest each other, we as parents have sat down and spoken about this and have chosen to ignour the behaviour hoping it will change, it has slightly!
i dont know what else to do

i kinda know your situation. i have a son and a daughter with a previous relationship, they are 5 and 7. and my husband has no biological kids. i am however pregnant now. so i sat both my kids down and asked them both if they wanted a new sister or brother. of course my daughter wanted a sister and my son wants a brother. so i talked to them both individually first i sat my daughter down and told her that if I have a boy that means she will forever be my only princess. ( im not having anymore kids after this one lol). and i did the same to me 5 yr old son, that if its a girl he would forever be my only prince. and so now they both dont care anymore about the gender of the baby because its a win/win either way. maybe explaining to your step daughter the benefits of being the only girl may be helpful. good luck.

Completely understand what your saying, but telling her she is the only princess will only egg on her behavior as she has her mothers attitude that she is better then every body and the world owes her.
It's a very difficult situation, if I buy something for master 6 that he actually needs like for eg I bought him new pillows, she flew off the handle that she didn't get anything. She isn't interested in anything unless someone else has it, like if master 6 is playing with daddy that's when she wants daddy attention any other time she couldn't care.
She has an extremely jealous nature I just don't know how else to change this or help. We try to include her and she just reacts nastily
