		<description>It&#039;s a great feeling when you get such acknowledgement.  I love the hugs from my &quot;steps&quot; which happens often due to the fact that they have normal, cooperative parents.  My 2 show flashes of that - but not as often, but of course - they live in fear of upsetting their mother, who feels any signs of affection for anyone other than momster is a threat to her motherhood/womanhood.

Warm story.  Very nice read.

		<description>And to the stepparents, it&#039;s not necessarily personal.  I just don&#039;t see why at 18 and after leaving home, I should start calling a guy I barely know my &quot;stepfather.&quot;  The few times we&#039;ve butted heads, it had to do with my very complicated relationship with my mother.  I have a general problem with having a man in any sort of position of authority.</description>

		<description>Not I!  I&#039;ve never met my stepmother since my father cut off all contact with his first family when they got married.    
I still refer to my stepfather as my mother&#039;s husband.</description>
