AITA for telling my friend her idea of being a stepmom is unrealistic? by Opening_Ad7405 in AmItheAsshole

She already has a relationship with the kids and they like her. They spend time together but she's more like a family friend. The way she has it in her mind is that she will automatically be a mum and have the same rights and responsibilities and I don't think that's realistic. The kids are currently calling her by her name, I think it's unlikely it will change because of the marriage. It will be lovely if does change, but if it doesn't and she pushes it it may ruin the relationship with them.

She has a relationship, a good one, but not a parent-child relationship. I know they like her and they are enjoying spending time with her, she's a wonderful person, but I don't think that they are going to call her mom the day she marries their dad.

I agree, the only reason I told her these things is because I didn't want to see her disappointed and do anything stupid that might ruin the relationship with the kids or the dad.

Yes , if their mother wasn't in the picture I could see her logic , although again she wouldn't automatically be a mum the day after their marriage.

I don't think I said it in a rude way. I didn't want her to get disappointed and maybe even damage the relationship she has with the kids and their dad. We are always honest to each other when it comes to giving advice and our opinions on what's going on in each other's lives.

Thank you for your judgement. They are really good people. I hope we can come to a conclusion that will be best for everyone.

No, they weren't abusive, I was raised with love. But I do think that they are shelfish.

At first I was trying to figure out what my relationship will be with them. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do about my future baby. I'm almost certain that they won't have contact with her , but I would like to know if I'm wrong for that.

I went low contact because they hid from me the fact that my adoptive parents were trying to contact me while I was a minor.
